The name “Edit Table” does not reflect its only function of renaming the table. A more consistent and intuitive name would be “Rename Table”. The actual editing of the table is done in Settings, where you can change various aspects of the table. 
On the other hand, the edit button for a field lets you modify the field’s name, data type, and other properties. There are no settings for the field level. 
I have noticed that this inconsistency in the user interface can cause confusion and frustration for new colleagues/customers. A more streamlined experience would lead to happy customers 😀.

Maybe a Settings button inside the table edit interface would be enough.
