Loss of power/slow spool when low fuel light comes on?

was driving around yesterday and the fuel light had just come on and the spool was very noticeable weaker, it didn’t want to spool up and the mid range had noticeably less torque, it just felt like it was struggling.

then when I filled up today the spool was back to normal with tons of torque. (Temps we’re exactly the same at 55 degrees both days, only different was fuel level)

unfortunately I didn’t take datalogs. But I’m wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this? I almost never let my fuel level get low enough to trigger the low fuel light so this is the first time I think I ever noticed this happen. I was just feeling lazy yesterday and didn’t fill up before the light came on.
