Just turn off the table-caption by adding the following to the document header.

:table-caption!:

We are discussing options for getting section-based numbering for objects like tables in the following issue:

That's because O'Reilly uses a completed custom backend for Asciidoctor (which is perfectly acceptable and encouraged for maximum customization).

See https://github.com/oreillymedia/asciidoctor-htmlbook

Remember, you can output any HTML you want in Asciidoctor. You just have to create a custom template file for the node in the tree you want to customize (or write your own custom converter to override everything).

But I can't find anything in the AsciiDoc source which controls that behaviour.
