OK - silly question I know but why would anyone want to stain an oak
table?

If it's a very light shade, one may want to age it a little. But
this doesn't need to mean making it nearly black or using garish
browns and oranges. Something fairly lightly applied and wiped off
almost immediately would work quite well.
