how does an oem fuel pump do away with a swirl pot ?

most cars have flatter tanks than the typical 7, yet there seems to be no swirl pot ?

they have a baffle set up to direct fuel to the pump

some have internal swirl pots or the pump has a sort of swirl pot that is part of the unit

some also sit in a sump pressed into the bottom of the tank.
