Bingo.

I don't see how it will do anything more for your engine than the air that already comes in through the intake, or that fills the empty space in your gas tank.

Sounds to me like a way for Shell to scam you for more profits. If they aerate the fuel at the pump, you are getting less actual fuel per gallon because the rest is just air.
