As per your Owner’s Guide (for future reference):The amount of usable fuel in the empty reserve varies and should not be relied upon to increase driving range. When refueling your vehicle after the fuel gauge indicates empty, you might not be able to refuel the full amount of the advertised capacity of the fuel tank due to the empty reserve still present in the tank.
I hope this helps. Stay safe.

Isn't running out of gas in a fuel injected car very bad?

My vehicle has been operated past the 0 miles to empty several times.

The most gasoline I've been able to squeeze into the gas tank and the fill tube is 15.5 gallons.

The owner's manual specifies a 16.0 gallon fuel capacity.

Again, running low on fuel and operating the vehicle this way will burn up your submersible fuel pump. I prefer to avoid the cost of it's replacement and gas up when I reach 1/4 of a tank.
Plus, winter weather temps are aproaching. The cooler weather promotes more condinsation in the tank. I try and keep the tank as full as possible during these cooler months.

Always has worked for me.
