Most never get the clue that gas fumes sink, not just spilled liquid.
So if you're filling a hot MC etc and no wind to push fumes away then good way to burn the thing and you.
But More annoying and dangerous... MC and some other small tanks have other problems on top of that.
1. Because they are small, filling w/ Station Pump Nozzles often have problems.
Many nozzles flow too fast when owner just squeeze the lever full open w/ many pumps will flow a Gallon in Seconds.
Some nozzles have problems and hard to control even when people squeeze the lever slowly open.
2. The Station Nozzles are made to work w/ cars and bigger. Most Nozzles for Farm and Private tanks are the same w/ Electric pumps or not.
Filling any small tanks or "cans" can be hard because can't "stuff the nozzle" in them more then a 2-3 inches to get rated capacity.
Either way the nozzle keep shutting off or easy to spill because "you blink" and spill.
Then most "gas can" nozzles aren't made for small engines tanks. More so w/ old engines or very small for weed eaters etc.
Newer "Anti-spill Cans" often doesn't work too. If they work when brand new from the store, often doesn't take long before the plastic distorts/breaks or "dirt" binds the nozzle. Many take too much force to work even if good and tip/move the device you're filling and spill then.
