Hello,
I have found out that whether sub-headers are included in a columnview
table depends on org-tags-match-list-sublevels which I hope is a bug
because it is unexpected and interferes with the columnview
configuration.
Please have a look at the attached file which demonstrates the problem.
No configuration necessary, the bug manifests itself when emacs is
executed with -Q. I was able to observe this with Org mode version
9.5.5 bundled with openSUSE Emacs 28.2 (when invoked as emacs -Q) but
not with Org mode version 9.3 bundled with Emacs 27.1 bundled with
debian bullseye.
Thank you very much for looking at this, please consider CCing me when
discussing the issue because I am not subscribed to the org-mode list.

Use M-x set-variable to set org-tags-match-list-sublevels to nil and
then position the cursor over the BEGIN columnview line and press C-c C-c.
Three lines corresponding to sub-headers of the table will disappear.
