That's your problem since Org didn't request the minipage in the first
place. You don't want a caption but still provide one.

This is really a matter of taste. I don't mind either way.

Again, this is the user's problem. But it could be reasonable to use
"captionof" when no environment is explicitly required. IOW "ox-latex"
could fall-back to caption of when a caption is specified and there's no
environment to hold it.
