The logical consequence of sending a boat to refuel the stranded boat by transferring fuel is the loss of two boats instead of one. Although perhaps good for morale if successful, I'd say it was an unwise thing to do.

Something that all navies - of all nations - at all times - seem to have in common is an extreme intolerance for error. I'd say the game simulates the consequences of running out of fuel reasonably accurately.
