I’ve never seen a fuel gauge marked in any kind of units like liters or gallons, just fractions of a full tank.

Implementation defined.

But like kWh you can easily learn (either intuitively or by the dark magic of multiplication) the ratio between tanks and ability to get to your destination.

The idea that people can’t learn that they get roughly 6 or roughly 3 etc km per kWh with their driving style and thus physical units should be hidden from them is insulting and anti-intellectual. Stop trying to project your stupidity and anti-curiosity onto others.
