Use Case

XWPFDocument doc = LoadDoc();

// Get the maximum number of columns in the table
// The current version can be obtained with this code,
// but it is not reliable, and the table must have at least 1 row
// without any horizontally merged cells
// in order to correctly obtain the actual number of columns in the table.
// ---> table.Rows.Max(r => r.GetTableCells().Count);
int columnCount = doc.Tables[0].ColumnCount; 

// Get the visual number of columns in the row,
// The effect of the merged cells on the number of columns
// should be considered, assuming that the whole row is merged
// and the number of columns in the changed row should be 1
// The following code is equivalent to: doc.Tables[0].GetRow(0).GetTableCells().Count;
int columnCountOfRow = doc.Tables[0].GetRow(0).VisualColumnCount;

// Get all the cells of the row, if there is a merged cell
// it should be regarded as unmerged cells,
// assuming that the row has 3 columns, and merged into 1 cell,
// the method should still return 3 cells
// As I understand it, the current version of NPOI is visual cells (i.e., merged cells as one cell)
IList cells = doc.Tables[0].GetRow(0).GetActualTableCells();
