They "DO" breathe. They exhale through a charcoal canister for the purpose of emissions.
Even with boat fuel tanks this isn't an issue and they are vented. In fact Mercruiser states in their owner's manuals to leave the tank as empty as possible. They used to say full but have changed their recommendation.
If there really was a problem with water condensing inside a fuel tank, you would see sweat forming on the outside of a fuel tank as well. When was the last time you saw a fuel tank sweating? Right...never!
