Where did you get that INFO?
Um actually the fuel tank has
two senders.
One on each side. It averages the two to show fuel level.
In normal operation, the fuel system level indication is in
Anti-Slosh Mode to take car of just such a problem as you
describe. ????
And this sloshing thing you talk bout is almost non existent.
It pulls fuel from the passengers side till thats almost empty
then from the drivers side till thats almost empty.
Not much sloshing to be done there... Heavily baffled the tank is.

Maybe the above links will shed some true light on the subject...
