Lightbulb Fuel Pump Chirp Noise Fixed on 2020 86s

Purchased a beautifully red 2020 GT 86 back in February and since then I've tacked a whopping 5k miles onto her.
I had previously owned a 2016 FRS so I was no stranger to the infamous, incessant fuel pump sound effects caused our very ethanol-y california fuel.

After a month of use, I started preparing for the shift to the summer blend fuel which really caused quite a chirp storm in my old 2016 FRS.

Amazingly enough, here in the middle of summer, I have yet to hear ANYTHING.
*knocks on wood*
I primarily pump chevron 91 but the other day I even pumped shell.
SHELL!
& GUESS WHAT?
NOTHING!

GONE ARE THE DAYS OF EXPLAINING TO TINDER DATES WHY I WAS PUTTING LAWN MOWER OIL IN MY CAR DURING FUEL UPS!

Now, before I throw my gallons of TC-W3 oil into the nearest river, I wanted to check in with some of you guys to see if what I'm experiencing isn't an anomaly.

Any 2020 owners out there as surprised as I am? Let me know
