But over the long term, filling to the brim will not change the overall demand, it just changed the storage location. Once the system catches up to that fact, there shouldn't be a shortage anymore.

yes, it should be possible to catch up, although it will happen more slowly depending on how bad the driver shortage has become within the fuel industry.
There were "fun" stories about people expanding the fuel tank storage capacity in their cars some years ago when we had shortages.
