While true, out of 479 fill-ups with this car, I've only had one instance where the first click shut off was blatantly early. Does shut off occur at exactly the same point every time? Certainly not, but based on my ongoing calculations, the discrepancy between pumps is acceptable for monitoring mpg.

BTW, I really only record mileage for purposes of monitoring condition of the vehicle, not for trying to milk every km/liter out of this thing that I possibly can so small errors in calculations don't phase me.
