I was trying to be conservative, but yeah. It's a magnitude of order of difference. Virtually impossible for a normal user to do on accident.

The game polls periodically with AYT's and characters that can't or don't respond are disconnected. If you've ever lagged out then gotten the "still logged in" message that's because you haven't failed enough AYT's yet for the server to DC you. When it hits that threshold your phantom gets kicked and you can log back in.
That's one way you can tell whether your lag (and a corresponding dc) was client side or server.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
