To be precise, there are 3 privileges:
- create temporary tables
- connect to the database
- create schemata

To be allowed to create a table, you need the create privilege
on the containing schema.

To be allowed to select from a table, you also need the usage
privilege on the schema containing the object.

You have all privileges on an object you own.

I guess that should clarify the behaviour in the original question.
