Default selecting table's cell black arrow missing

Hi!
When you want to select a table's cell you move the cursor to the left of cell and a black arrow appears, just in my second table:

Unfortunately in the first table this arrow is missing, does anyone know why?

Because the first table has its left & right cell margins set to 0.

So I need to specify the cell left margin at least 0.5mm to appear the black arrow. I didn't know that, thanks!

When I want to select a cell, I tab into it.

0.1mm would be more than enough.
