In your screenshot, the Gradient Editor is set to show Blue.  Of the R (Red), G (Green), B (Blue) tick boxes, "B" is enabled.

Click the H (Hue) tick box and you should see the full range of colors.

 

This isn't an "after thought".  It's user controls for selecting color that mirrors Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Premiere Pro.
