Why isn't tabwrite~ able to accept an index inlet (like [tabwrite]) at
audio rate?

No idea, why it doesn't accept an explicit index, but there is an invisible index always active: the current sample taken from the last time the tabwrite~ was bang'ed adjusted by the block boundaries (tabwrite~ is aligned to block boundaries).

So what you can do is bang your tabwrite~ regularily with a metro (maybe adjusted to block boundaries using [bang~]) and then let it record in a loop. You can read from the table using tabread4~ as usual, but make sure that you're not reading at the same point where you are writing, or if you do, you should use order-forcing to get the minimal possible delay times. Order forcing here works the same as order forcing with delwrite~/delread~: Use two subpatches for writer and reader and keep the writer ordered before the reader like in the G05.execution.order.pd example.
