AdBlue does not mix with diesel. It is water-based and diesel is not, so the two separate — and because AdBlue is denser, it settles to the bottom of the tank. This matters more than it sounds. Because there is no mixing, there is no dilution, and because there is no dilution the "small amount" reasoning that works for petrol in diesel does not apply here at all. Densities: AdBlue around 1.09 kg per litre, diesel around 0.83. The heavier liquid goes to the bottom. The fuel pickup is at the bottom.
