I'm not sure I understand the situation you are describing. (The word
"margin" is too overloaded, even if we confine ourselves to Emacs
parlance alone.) Could you please provide an example of such a
paragraph? Then I could reason about it.
I can't give you an example, but move-to-left-margin shows
what it means to be at the left margin. It is a matter of
matching the paragraph regexps after the right amount of whitespace
as specified by the value of `left-margin'.
When `left-margin' is nonzero, a line which fails to start with that much
whitespace also starts a paragraph.

They are not "different", they just follow the base direction of the
preceding paragraph.
To be fully correct, it ought to detect paragraphs correctly when
`left-margin' is nonzero. I think that won't be hard to do.
