Sorry, you've lost me. If a call drops, it's up to the caller to
re-establish it, that's always been the convention with everyone I know
for as long as I can remember.

If you call me, presumably you want to talk to me. If the call drops, you
will call me again if you want to carry on talking to me. Why should I
call you at my expense when it was you who initiated the conversation..?
