1. Go to https://codepen.io/webcompat/full/KwPZdEK
2. Check the last example with the title: "simple table width border=1 / colspan=0 + border-collapse:collapse"

Result the second and third column seemed to have been cut off. 
Compare with other browsers (which seems wrong too in a subtly different way too)

The simplified test case

<table border="1" style="border-collapse:collapse">
  <tr><td colspan="0">A1</td></tr>
  <tr><td>B1</td><td>B2</td><td>B3</td></tr>
  <tr><td>C1</td><td>C2</td><td>C3</td></tr>
</table>

Probably the rendering should be like 

<b>simple table width border=1 / colspan=3 + border-collapse:collapse</b>
<table border="1" style="border-collapse:collapse">
  <tr><td colspan="3">A1</td></tr>
  <tr><td>B1</td><td>B2</td><td>B3</td></tr>
  <tr><td>C1</td><td>C2</td><td>C3</td></tr>
</table>

This is the rendering for (from left to right, top to bottom)

Safari Technology Preview  211          20621.1.9.111.1
Firefox Nightly            136.0a1       13625.1.19
MiniBrowser with my patch for rowspan=0 Bug 185341 (probably will be in STP 212)
Google Chrome Canary       134.0.6969.0  6969.0

We can see that the external border in the case of colspan is not drawn for Safari/Minibrowser in the case of "colspan=0"



PS: There is another difference which is in between colspan and rowspan behavior but which is identical for all browsers see Bug 285415
