Just googled an image:

common software)

They say "multiple columns". As far as I am concerned, a QTreeView is a
special QTableView. You can see on the above image that it is column and
row based and as a direct consequence, you have "cells" of data. It is just
that the tree visual expand into the first column a bit more due to its
graphical nature, but it eventually is column-based.
