Actually... after looking closely at the screenshots, it seems I mistook this for a different problem.

Your screenshots show how you think time of sunrise/sunset should be displayed, is that correct? i.e. sunset is reported at 16:15, but in the graph its bottom touches the "horizon" at 15:59.

Sunset begins when its bottom touches the horizon.

Well... sunset occurs when its upper limb disappears below the horizon, so I think your second screenshot should actually be similar to your first (except mirrored). However...

I think the issue you are perceiving is that the circle isn't an accurate representation of the sun, especially as its edge moves over the "horizon" line on the graph. At the time of civil twilight, nautical twilight, etc, that circle is centered over the line (as expected). It makes sense (and is accurate) if you think of that circle as a point instead.

I guess this could be "fixed" by indicating the importance of the center, maybe by drawing a vertical line behind it (similar to the "crosshair" in the sunlight graph).
