I have a goal: make a table in R using org-babel and have it appear in
the latex export.  I also want to be able to refer to the table by name in
the org file and have that become a hypertext link in the latex export.

Using Org mode version 9.4.4 I build this document:

<<begin>>
#+NAME: t1
#+begin_src R :exports both
   library(tidyverse)
   x <- tribble(~a, ~b, 1, 3)
   x
#+end_src
#+CAPTION: Org Table
#+RESULTS: t1
| 1 | 3 |

I want to refer to Table [[t1]].
<<end>>

What I expect: the latex export will include the table and link to it.

What happens instead: the code and table appear, numbered and captioned.
However, the link is broken ("I want to refer to Table ??"). Looking in
the latex, this line reads

 > I want to refer to Table \ref{org993764c}.

but that label org993764c appears nowhere else in the file.

Org-lint doesn't complain about the file at all.  I searched the archives
and the intertubes, I don't see any discussion of this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It works if you put a #+label on the table ... which confuses me, because I 
looked through the manual for #+label and there's no mention of it at all, but a 
bunch of my Org files use it (for LaTeX export).

# -----

#+name: t1
#+begin_src R :exports both
library(tidyverse)
x <- tribble(~a, ~b, 1, 3)
x
#+end_src

#+caption: Org table.
#+label: tab_t1
#+RESULTS: t1
| 1 | 3 |

I want to refer to Table [[tab_t1]].
