"Someone's dad" was, I'm afraid, an idiot. It does a car no good at all to be run to empty. Certainly not a modern one. It can mess up injectors and pumps, and any small particles in the fuel system can be ingested into the engine.
Just go by the readout, and over time you'll get a very good idea of the fuel consumption and how far you can safely go on a tankful. Always fill up when it gets to a quarter full and don't always try and stretch out the fill-ups to the last drop.
