No, it's not only a PT thing.
In just about any vehicle, if you keep too little gas in the tank for a long enough time, the pump will suffer because it's the surrounding gasoline which cools it.

P.s.,
I've got an '03 Turbo with autostick.
It has no trouble getting 21 to 22mpg driving a 50/50 mix of highway and city roads.
Of course, I drive like an old man most of the time. LOL.
