All those links either talk about debris at the bottom, lubricating the fuel pump, or other negative things about running your tank near empty.

I'm sure you're right. I'm normally paranoid about possible problems/issues, but this is just one i won't follow. I've always had the same mindset re when to fill up and I don't want to change. Also, when I start to miss the normal 'benchmarks' for my fuel bars, I try to drive even more economically re habits to make up for the lag. In the comments on your first link and on your third link, a fair number of people posted who (like me) run their tank low and have done this on all the cars they've owned and have never had a fuel filter fail.
