Crypto backed capabilities that merge the token with the capability itself are one morph of capability based systems, but that's not the scheme being described here. Leaking the name of a capability (the offset in the cap table) does not leak the capability itself in these TCB schemes. Capabilities are still communicable in these TCB schemes because they're explicitly supported in the IPC mechanisms like SCM_RIGHTS or seL4_Send along side normal data. The token naming a capability then is a per process concept and you can clone an identical capability into several tokens in the same cap table, unlike the crypto enforced scheme which are basically content addressed storage for a secret representing a capability.
