Right, your point is taken but the point is more to explain the full portion of the rainbow. Not just the section you see.

Is the cross section of a cone not a circle, or semi circle in this case since we only see part of the “cone”?

I watched Donald Duck in Mathmagic Land and you are right.

There are gaps in between the rain drops which means we see other parts of the cone.

This. We don’t as people define a rainbow as the path of light or anything like that. We define a rainbow as a circle of colors in the sky. That’s how language works.
