Most aircraft that don't have a gauge for each tank only read a tank
that is currently selected. So to say that the fuel gauge is there to
detect leaks is specious at best.

You keep talking about detecting a leak. Have you flown a comanche?
Do you consider the pa-24-260 to be unsafe because the fuel gauge
can only read one tank at a time?

Why would reading just one tank at a time make it unsafe? Even with
both displayed simultaneously, I generally read one, then the other--
one at a time.
