Why does the "caption" style in stdlayouts.inc display "Senseless!"

I've got a section which includes some text, a table, and some more text.
The table has to appear in a specific location between certain paragraphs so
it is a fixed table not a floating one, and it could certainly use a
caption, so on the face of it "caption" looks like the right tool for the
job.

I can see the technical reason why it abuses me like this - it's the label
defined in the style. But this is a philosophical why?

* Why tell me that a caption is senseless?
* Why *is* a caption senseless here?
* And why define a senseless style in the standard delivery in the first
place?

Cheers
