If it’s Python markdown (I have had no way to mine the ietfdb source properly since git-svn gave its last gasp on my machine), that considers tables to be an “extension” that needs to be switched on explicitly.

The same seems to be true for Python markdown2, which the silver searcher does find in the belly of the datatracker.

… would need, say,
tables
fenced-code-blocks
strike
cuddled-lists

strike because of our propensity to change agenda lists at the last moment :-)
cuddled-lists because many of us are lazy.
