Comment (by swissspidy):

 > What scenario allows you to access this page but not add new terms? What
 role do you need to have/setup to test this?

 This happens when you have the `manage_terms` capability for that taxonomy
 but not `edit_terms`.

 In my case, the custom taxonomy was registered with caps like these:

 {{{#!php
 'capabilities'          => [
         'manage_terms' => 'manage_categories',
         'edit_terms'   => 'manage_business_areas',
         'delete_terms' => 'manage_business_areas',
         'assign_terms' => 'edit_posts',
 ],
 }}}

 Categories being a default taxonomy, I had the `manage_categories` caps
 but since I haven't yet added the custom `manage_business_areas` cap to my
 user / role, the demonstrated scenario happens.

 You could easily test it by manually removing the `edit_categories`
 capability using something like the Members plugin.
