I'm not even convinced that you get better mileage from 0%. The computer in a modern vehicle controls every aspect of the ignition system and knows what fuel you are burning. It adjusts accordingly. Of course, YMMV as they say.
In other words you really should just test it out. Run a couple of tanks of each and compare.
There is less energy in ethanol and the computer cannot adjust for that.
1993 called. They want their "computer" back....
Since the subject was mileage, you should know that fuel with less energy will deliver less mileage and there is no adjustment that will make that fact go away, but then I live in the real world.
