Regularly running around with your tank that low is a great idea if you enjoy replacing fuel pumps.

Fuel pumps are cooled by the gas they are submerged in.

When you run too low they overheat leading to premature failure.

One thing in a car where typically you can access it from inside the car.

Quite another in trucks / SUVs where a tank drop is required.

YMMV
