This only applied to the #+STARTUP settings which can have a number
of keywords on a single line, like
#+STARTUP: align hidestars odd

Yes, there can be other lines in between, even though
this is probably not a good idea. The way the parser works
is that it runs through the buffer, finds CAPTURE etc and
applies it the next thing (table, link,...) that wants it.

Yes, only one TBLFM line per table.

Tags are matched by [[:alnum:]_@#%:]+
Dashes are not allowed because this would be cumbersome for the
agenda tags matcher which uses "-" as NOT.

TODO and SEQ_TODO are the same. TYP_TODO is slightly different
in operation. When you press C-c C-t in a line with the keyword
defined by TYP_TODO, the task will immediately switch to DONE,
instead of to the next state in the sequence. I do believe the
manual explains this quite well, but I don't believe many people use this.

TAGS defines tags that will be used in the buffer
and defines fast keyboard shortcuts for them. Though
you are allowed to also use tags that are not in tis list.
FILETAGS defines tags that are *inherited* by all trees in the buffer,
You can imagine FILETAGS as the tags specified on a level zero headline
of which all level one headlines in the buffer are children.
HTH.
