The curve in the tube at the bottom puts it in at an angle. Won't be level across the width of the stick.
Should be readable if there's actually oil in it.
There will always be oil on the tube walls that will scrape out on the edges.
Unless it's reeeel empty.

That's what I'm afraid of. I just don't see how I can be so critically low. My last oil change was maybe 5k miles ago, I have no leaks and I'm not burning oil. I'm tempted to just flush and fill tonight but the oil filter is still on its way. Would changing the filter post-fill be okay? I'm trying to avoid oil starvation and the dreaded spun rod bearing.
