No fluid means no lubrication, right? Seems like the problem causes the fluid to leak which reduces pressure which makes sense with pedal not coming back. DOT-4 maybe less viscous (or more depending on the nature of part failure), but changing it adds fluid... which then continues to leak though maybe not as much....

Mine was bone dry when it failed. You would have to check after every stop pretty much to spot it, though.
