I just seems to make good sense to me. Quick check with JAWS 2021 and Chrome: * With the <h4> inside the <caption> and reading line by line I first get the table caption and then the heading (with identical text) (→ redundant). * When jumping to the Table with T the heading is ignored. It seems to me that using two headings (in their general meaning) is not necessary. A heading could be used before the table, if the table represents aa section.
