IIRC, we discussed on the list the omission of simple things that "everybody
knows" and especially in Apicius they omit salt, stock and other goodies. I
figured that I could salt the braising liquid, but thought that the additional
complex flavor of garum would augment the bay leaves and figs nicely, so I
winged it in. I felt that salting the braising liquid would not work with the
figs as well either.
