The best debugging technique I can suggest here is to export to LaTeX
and then look at the .tex file. It's usually clear what broke, who is
responsible and, often, how to fix it.

In this case, the org table looked untouched by the exporter, but when I
got rid of the ``\scriptsize {'', the table was properly exported.
