I've noticed the EFI tanks put the sump and sender in the deepest part of the tank, for obvious reasons, and they tend to have the deeper part of the tank towards the front.
So as fuel is used the tank isnt emptying in a granular fashion or a level fashion because it's at an angle.
I don't know if I'm explaining that well enough to make sense but that's what I've noticed.
On a regular stock tank the sender is closer to the middle of the tank and therefore gives a more accurate representation as fuel drains.
That may very well be the case, but think the OE float assembly positions the float towards the front, in the deeper section, but honestly can't recall. I do know the 5 screw hole in the efi tanks position the float to the passenger side, if I recall correctly, the 5 screw holes are clocked.
