A rectangular box certainly cannot represent the distorted field of view of a 10mm lens. This is for aiming and getting a rough guide, and works well for long focal widths. For overlaying wide-angle shots, somebody has to rewrite that part. The different angle per pixel looks weird. Have you configured sensor dimensions and pixel count correctly? (Maybe sensor dimensions from data sheets have been rounded?)

If we assume that the lens is an ideal perspective lens (we don't simulate actual objectives, so this is a sensible approximation), then a rectangular box in perspective projection is perfectly capable of representing the field of view of this lens.

I took the stock EOS 80D, whose parameters seem correct. The problem with this part appears to be that the calculation takes the whole FoV of the lens and divides it by the number of pixels, which is bound to be wrong due to non-uniform angular resolution in different parts of the frame (the center being the densest). If I compute just the resolution of the pixels from the center, it's isotropic.

Here's my attempt at matching the photo and the Stellarium render. I made vertical sizes of the frame equal, and put Sirius at the same spot on the screen.

Expected Behaviour
When choosing focal length of the lens and the sensor corresponding to my camera, and choosing perspective projection (which is what most non-fisheye lenses try to simulate), the red rectangle that's turned on by the Image sensor frame button should be roughly the same as the rectangle of the photo I'd take with my camera, up to distortions of the lens.
