Nesting longtable within a longtable
Creating a table within a longtableHow to get multiple multirows in a table?Latex: rowcolor in tabular not respecting table widthFit a table to page widthtabu package - gaps in vertical linesWhat options are there to globally format tables also allowing local overrides?Horizontal lines in nested tabular environmentHow to correctly create a macro for a table?Longtable captions in LoT not behaving the way TableTabular doHaving trouble understanding the tabular environmentHow to set longtable width to text width so that the text in cell wraps around automatically?
As per the working MWE below (based on the solution https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/165337/69378), I like the simplicity of nesting a table into the cell of a parent table compared to the multirow package. Page breaking is one of my favourite capabilities of the longtable package and I'm wondering if it's possible to, rather than starting from longtable and using tabular sub-tables to create columns or tables to present greater details, use longtable in both instances.
Since it doesn't work to use two nested instances of longtable, is it possible to patch a macro or command to let longtable nest within other longtables or does the capabilities that let it split across pages make this too complicated?
I did test using tabular as the parent table, and tabular as the sub-tables which works fine, so I'd guess that it's indeed particular to the longtable code even though the errors thrown look pretty generic (missing end groups and paragraph ending before complete).
