Default another reason not to...

Too bad. It is a good idea never to drop below 1/4 tank. One reason not generaloy known is that fuel acts to cool the in-tank fuel pump, and if it "starves" due to sucking air in a tight corner, the internal parts temperatures rise quickly - repeated heatings will shorten the life of the pump.
