In order to format properly as a table in Markdown, the table needs the line of pipes and dashes at the beginning, and a blank line of pipes where headers would normally be (this report has no column headers). Closing a table with bracket notation is not needed-the pipes are what informs the markdown syntax to close the table. All verified in Markdown Preview, and per TC staff guidance.
