True. It's not the mass of the liquid, it's the volume of the airspace. If you have 10,000 kg of water with only a liter of airspace, the most you're going to get is the effect of 1 kg moving around, not 10,000. Our bulk tanks had a bit more space in them on a typical load, but they also have internal baffles.
