Like i said, i always run my cars (and bikes) to the last quarter of fuel and never had a problem.
I'd lovely volunteer, since i would just have to continue with what i'm doing.
But then again, if my pump survives all the time, it's not necessary a safe conclusion, since every pump is different...

If youve ever pulled the fuel pump out, the assembly that the pump sits in keeps the pump submerged no matter what the level of the tank is. The assembly has a hose, from the filter or maybe return line?, that constantly flows fuel into the assembly

I have a commute of 60 miles per day, I fill up 2x a week. I average 30.5mpg and usually drive 420 miles per tank. I fill up with 13.2 consistently... I only use 91 octane NON-ethanol fuel. When im stuck and have to use 93 octane E10 fuel I get 27.5-28mpg...
It goes back to 30.5-31mpg when I fill back up with non-ethanol. I have driven a mile or so on -0- miles to empty, cringing the whole time!
my life is that exciting.
