Why is a table associated with an Event Registry record?

To send notifications developers us gs.eventQueue(string, object, string, string, string) where object is a GlideRecord.   That object is then passed through the event to the Notification record.  

Why does there exist on the Event Registry a table associated with the event itself, or is it not needed?

Good question William. While I don't know the legacy reason why, it can infer that it is to filter and direct the events to the event management engine to make it run more efficiently.

As far as I know from the notification perspective the table name and GlideRecord should be the same table.
