I guess that's a fancier way of saying make it possible to move them around.
As it stands now one bomb can render medbay nigh useless. Letting people move the tables around would let the doctors remodel another room into a makeshift surgery room, or let people do surgery gimmicks anywhere on the station or off station. Since stealing the tables would be rude, maybe a spare table could be placed in an unused storage room.
I remember there being a method of doing surgery on people on an real table if they're in crit, but critting someone just to remove a bullet just seems kind of irresponsible and a waste of perfectly good brute patches, and might be kinda screwy for a medborg to beat someone with a fire extinguisher just to remove a bullet.
Maybe make it so that a doctor (plus maybe security and the detective) can slide their ID onto the table to unlock it, then move the table, slide the ID again, and then the table is in it's normal locked form. That solves the problem of the wrong people stealing or spacing the tables, and it tells doctors that they're free to move the surgery tables without having other people screw with them or steal them.
I assume this could be paired with the suggestion to add Medbay checkpoints to destiny, since you could have a normal table and only move the surgery table there when you need to.
I get that there's a few extra surgery tables around, but a way to move them around for gimmicks and remodeling just seems more fun.
Also I probably shouldn't have used all caps for the title, but I wanted the title to be short, sweet, and catchy.
