Two-way dial-on-demand systems may be few but actually exist.
In that case, a keep alive packet may cause an extra charge of 10 yen
(about US$0.08), which can be significant if the amount of other traffic
is small.
Note that I am not necessarily against keep alive, if there is a
benefit over that charge.
