Found a workaround (sort of):

InDesign now treats a copy > paste as a character dump, but doesn’t preserve the fact that it’s in a table. Copying a table and opening the clipboard shows it’s being copied as a table correctly, but InDesign doesn’t like it being put back inline that way. The trick is now to select the table and go up to the menu and “Edit > Duplicate”. This makes a duplicate table, although it makes it directly after the table you’re trying to duplicate. Still not able to directly duplicate a table from page 3 to page 7, but it’s something at least.
