Is there any way to set the default spacing below a table? I know I can

this for all tables a document (in some documents that means quite a
lot of them).

It does seem rather odd that there are char, pp, list, frame and page
styles, but no table styles.
It has been requested as an enhancement:

You can register and add a comment or vote there. Hard to say from that
whether there's any possibility of it happening. It would require a
major(?) change in the file format, which is always a big deal (i.e. delay).
In the meantime, there is a reasonable workaround: just put your tables
inside a frame. The frame can have a style, including the space around
(including below) it (Format > Frame > Wrap).
Of course that's still more work than just inserting a table, and you
can accomplish the same thing by copy&paste of a table with spacing
added, but at least the frame would have a true style where you could
adjust the spacing (as well as a lot of other layout settings) easily
for all tables.
You can define an autotext holding an empty table in a frame; using that
would be almost as easy as simply inserting a table: 'TF' (two-letter
shortcut), F3.
