It is conventional to use singular names for tables:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/338156/table-naming-dilemma-singular-vs-plural-names

This makes things like ORM classes more sensible

It may be that for many use cases the table names are hidden behind python APIs, but I think there are use cases where the tables are exposed.

I realize table renaming is disruptive. gizmo would have to be synced. But the window for making these kinds of changes may narrow as rdftab takes off...

We may also want to look at reserved words in some database systems too, just to make sure object is OK

not a hill I want to die on, I can go with any names you have, but wanted to get under consideration while the opportunity exists
