This appears to be bad documentation here. Widgets claim they anchor from the bottom left corner. Thus it should fill the whole thing. However, rectangles actually are anchoring from the middle. So when you say X: 0 and y: 0, you are putting the middle in the bottom corner. The whole thing is there, just only the top right quadrant is shown.
Changing this would be breaking for others, so updating docs is the best approach.
If you remove x and y, it with default center. Additionally if you add anchor_x: left and anchor_y: bottom then it will appear as expected.
From cmd use mpf imc to see an interactive MC. This allows you to play with positioning, then copy it into your config.
I'll amend that slightly.

The default anchor position is middle. This is inconsistent with what shows elsewhere. So this page matches how the code works. Other pages are inconsistent though. I'll try to run through and fix them and the examples.
I've got the config
With the following widget, there appears just an rectangle quarter of the window. Other widgets use the whole window.
