Default Should gas preservative be used now?

With extended periods of our Jags being idle, should we be putting some gas preservative in the tank like I do for winter storage with my boat? Ethanol gas does separate and cause some really bad problems gumming up the fuel systems in boats. The same ought to be true with our idle cars now. With the requirement to stay home during the pandemic, I'll bet I haven't put fresh gas in my car for months. I used Stor-and-Start in my marine engine gas tanks. Anybody else concerned with this issue? Opinion?

Can't hurt, but I doubt it's really necessary, IMO

In my neck o' the woods (Pacific Northwest) we having nothing but E10 (unless you seek out non-E10...hard to find) and I haven't had any problems even after many months of non-use.

Cheers
