Thanks for taking the time to look into it.  According to my notes, :sep and :separator don't work for anything beyond basic table layout.  I'm not familiar with org-table and there isn't much documentation on those keywords in the manual.  The :sep keyword shows up for Texinfo and LaTeX.   It looks like :sep is used for export?  It's not clear to me how they're supposed to work with shell block output, or if that was even a consideration at all.

They were added in https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=a60a83fbb65a368bb96ea6aaf1db20706b3e99c5 claiming "better handling of table in shell scripts"  So, it looks like their inclusion was intentional.

Maybe someone has deeper insights?
