With the salt, pepper, and third shaker thing, I like to believe there was just no widespread agreement on what the third default seasoning was, so they left it up to discretion.
You wanna put some paprika in there, go for it. You’d rather have ground parmesan, be our guest. Maybe some coffee, or straight cocaine. It’s your shaker.
Etcetera was the name of a ubiquitous spice used in most households, that has now gone extinct; like Silphium. Since it was always placed third on the table next to salt and pepper, it was synonymous with a third or more listed option, then shortened for brevity: e.g. a, b, etc /s
