As I write this the enum headers are centered horizontally while the
datetime ones are left aligned. The centering doesn't do it for me. To
much gap and the data itself is not centered so there is a large
disconnected between the header and the value.

The run-on aspect of the left-aligned setup is of some concern but maybe
just adding some left padding to the second column - and right padding to
the first - can provide the desired negative space without adding so much
as to break usability.
