    I would imagine this is because there is no way to make them concrete:

    class Foo extends Table {
        override val records = 3
    }
    

    would fail, because records is private to Table.

    It would make Table kind of useless. I can’t see that it would hurt anything, just it almost certainly indicates a mistake by the programmer.
