FAA certification standards require that fuel gauges read
(1) empty when there is only unusable fuel (or less) in that tank
(2) a different indication when the tank is full

I suspect the only reason for (2) is to prohibit manufacturers from
painting a needle onto the dial that always points to empty.
Thus, an acceptable gauge might have a needle that indicates full when
the tank is above half full and empty when less than half full.

Hope that helps ...
