A sunset disproves the flat earth model. Maybe that is why people laugh at this theory so much (and why feds push it onto the truth community)
Why are the tops of the clouds illuminated during sunsets if the sun is sinking behind the horizon (and thus a lower elevation compared to clouds on a spherical earth, which would mean the bottoms of the clouds should be illuminated)?
The real question is why the sun sets, not why light doesn't behave the way you think it should. But if you believe the sun was truly above us even after appearing to set, there would be no night. So your model doesn't work.
My line of thinking is that there is a limitation on how far sunlight travels before it becomes ineffective.
Then why can you see stars? Are they closer to the ground then the sun?
