You can equally persuade ext2 to run out of space without storing any data Just create zero-byte files until it runs out of inodes!

You're still storing something: you're storing the metadata. (at a minimum, the filenames and permissions)
But you're right, that (pathological) case is likely the lower bound for utilization in ext2.

Not really -- that's why ext2 also has inode quotas/file quotas.
