heard eventually it can burn up te fuel pump, and you start getting some of the dirty fuel sitting in the bottom of the tank.

you run the risk of running your fuel pump dry which isn't good. a good rule of thumb is at the quarter mark fill the tank.

the word is condense, and it's water from the air condensing in the tank, not the fuel itself.
