What is happening here?

I'm making the buttons for this D-Pad by simply insetting and moving the inner face down. Though, in solid mode, the top one will not show the edit. At first, normals were flipped, so I fixed that thinking it'd fix the issue, but still the top one doesn't appear in solid mode. Even more, at the end of the video there's this flipped normal/face that I cannot access? I tried flipping that normal, but I cannot select it. I tried recalculating the inside and outside as well. No change...

Couldn't figure it out with my limited knowledge, someone kindly help me~

How would you manage this?

I'm learning Blender again, and want to learn how to create effective topology. On my path towards that goal, I keep getting stumped on areas like this. Then I ask myself, "How do I make this all into quads? Do I even need to in this particular area? How would others solve this? Is there one way to do this?"

I'm still training my brain to handle these things, but in the meantime, I wanted to see what others might suggest.

Thanks in advance~
