Even on a track day with near empty fuel tank I never had starvation issues.

Not really sure your point. I didn't even know the car had this problem. Yet this issue caused me to almost have an accident. I hit the (unknown to me) issue going maybe 90 on a long turn that maybe took 20 seconds to get through.

I love all the asshat comments "it never happened to me so it doesn't exist" or " Simple Solution... keep gas in your car". fanboys or tools!
