It's true that normally, if you want something to act as both a container and platform (like a standalone safe that you can also set things on), you'd want to use Kent Tessman's "supercontainer" addition as Hugo has no built-in support for keeping track of which objects are on the object and which are inside. In some cases, like this one, you might use both "container" and "platform" just to help with player commands (as it will accept both >PUT CARCASS IN PIT and >PUT CARCASS ON GRILL).
