Huh? Ethanol is extremely hygroscopic and aggressively absorbs moisture from the air. While anhydrous it is miscible with gasoline but once mixed with water it phase separates in the bottom of the tank. Once up to the level of the fuel pickup, big problems occur.
Perhaps you were thinking of Methanol?
It takes a lot of water to get to this point. Most cars are using fuel at a rate that it never happens so it's a non-issue. One other comment, many point to particulates in the fuel as causing injector problems. Wouldn't the fuel filter take care of that?
I think injector problems are an issue for older cars, not an issue in current cars and a non-issue for most of us.
