luac -l -p can help clear in these cases

        1       [1]     NEWTABLE        0 1 1
        2       [1]     SETTABLE        0 -2 -2 ; 1 1
        3       [1]     LOADK           1 -3    ; 2
        4       [1]     SETLIST         0 1 1   ; 1
        5       [1]     SETGLOBAL       0 -1    ; t
        6       [1]     RETURN          0 1

Note that SETTABLE sets t[1]=1 and then SETLIST sets t[1]=2.
