Reproduced and I agree it would be good to have column deletion follow the logic of row deletion in case of merged cells.

Problem still exists but behaviour is different under 
Version: 5.3.7.2 (x64)
Build-ID: 6b8ed514a9f8b44d37a1b96673cbbdd077e24059
CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Windows 6.1; UI-Render: Standard; Layout-Engine: neu; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: group

While it is still possible to delete Row 2
deletion of culumn 2 in the mirrored table is now forbidden (delete column is greyed out)
This change of behaviour is not improving the situation. The desired result is not achieved and I can not see how to achieve it... (no bypass solution!)

Original bug is now resolved in 7.5+, confirmed with other duplicates. 

attachment 126378 [details] has a weird behavior so I cannot test. 
I cannot select in 2nd table, and that's not related to fixing commit, same is before in 7.5+.
In 7.4 I can select in table but cannot delete columns. 
Also in 6.0 cannot select, in 5.3 cannot delete.
I don't know how 

I will report and See Also, let this bug remain a duplicate as it was.
