Well, it would probably be better to say that '\\' is a shorthand for
'\newline' or '\tabularnewline', whichever applicable. When one wants to
control horizontal alignment in parboxed tabular cells, then one has to
make a choice about the meaning of '\\', does it refers to
'\tabularnewline' or to '\newline'. This concerns any parboxed cell (p,
m, b) with with the '>{...}' construct of array package or direct use of
\raggedright, \raggedleft, \centering within the cell.

Personnally I always prefer that '\\' remains '\tabularnewline', because
forcing a newline within the cell is scarcely done, while adding rows to
the table is often, so I postfix \raggedright, \raggedleft, \centering
by \arraybackslash.
