I've realized that \startplacetable is not necessary:

Massi,

Whether or not you need \startplacefloat (where the float can be a figure, graphic, intermezzo, or table, or a user-defined item) depends on the requirements of the document. Floats are typically separate entities that do not appear in the linear flow of the text, but instead appear in a convenient place close to where they are referenced by the text. In addition to providing suggestions to the placement algorithm for positioning the float and handling caption formatting, the \startplacefloat mechanism manages the generation of reference information. If your tables are always set inline and do not need to be referenced within the text or in lists of floats (via \placelist), then you do not need \startplacefloat.
