That ^ is my (limited) understanding of why it's there; wider flammability limits (too rich in a gas tank to support a flame with gas, less so with ethanol) and that it is possible to generate a static charge when filling with the ethanol.

It's easy and cheap enough to do, with the consequences of it being needed and not there bad enough that I think it's worth doing, even if the overall risk is low.
