IIRC, I use the same procedure for conditional lines for both cylinders and
cones, with minor changes.

I think ideally this would be used on all segmented primitives that are circular
and not flat (obviously it doesn’t apply to primitives like disks and rings).
So think that the same logic would apply to cones. Incidentally, I think the
1/8 spheres were the first primitives to use this style.
Having said that, I think having primitives that do things the “old” way is
fine. It may not be optimal, but I don’t personally think it is all that bad,
either.
