Primary in the sense that it is the table that actually implements
most of the methods, including things like QueryInterface(), rather
than forwarding them to somewhere else.

> My impression was that whenever we have different vtables in an object that there are converter functions from and to all ifaces and no iface is obtained by casting. Of course if we have some policy or enough code to prove my point here wrong please disregard the objection.

Just open a random COM object implementation like eg.
dlls/shell32/shlview.c or dlls/comdlg32/filedlgbrowser.c.
