Specifying a starting column with colortbl package and xcolor
I have a table that I have attempted to set up as follows (contrived example):

end{document}
Apologies in advance for this being generated code, but a commenter below asked for a complete compilable example instead of just the tabular snippet that I had had originally posted. Hopefully this will make it clearer, but I apologize in advance if it has obfuscated the problem.
Anyways, this renders as:
As seen, the sideways header that I am using on the left side of the table gets overwritten by the color of the row, interrupting the text.
What I would like to do is have that entire first column containing the left row header be white on all rows, which I tried to do by adding cellcolor{white}
to the multirow cell, but as the image indicates, it only cleared the top gray strip in that cell, and didn't do anything to the rest of the first column.
How can I get the full text of the header to show up correctly?

I have reduced the document to the minimum necessary.
Note that noindentbegin{flushleft}
is nonsense, because it just adds unwanted vertical space (a blank line). Also parend{flushleft}
is not necessary.
What does the strange hspace
command? It adds the vertical size of the two header rows.
