I have a form with Main and Secondary data connections that contain datasets
with multiple tables. When I bind a repeating section to a table in the Main
connection and view the form the repeating section is displayed with an
Insert Item link below it. When I bind a repeating section to a table in a
secondary connection and view the form, the repeating section is displayed
but there is no Insert Item link below it.

From this I conclude that you can only insert sections in Repeating Sections
if the section is bound to the Main data connection.

Does this sound correct or am I drawing the wrong correlation between what
I've done and the behavior I am seeing?

Thanks,

By saying "Inserting Repeating Sections" means you will need to submit
some data (maybe to database).  However insertion of new records using
repeating section is only possible using main dataconnection, as per
my knowledge.  Secondary dataconnection is usually used for recieving
or fetching data into infopath form.
Thats why, when you bind your repeating section with secondary
dataconnection , you won't see "Insert Item" link.
