If.

That is why I asked the question.

They drop all secure connections. For security reasons, I had to access a VPS on port 33 (instead of 22), and in the past couple months I've been unable to do so.

That's an interesting data point, but port 33 is rarely used so deep packet inspection is still relatively cheap. I'd really like someone to test on port 80, then I'd believe that it's 100% coverage with deep packet inspection.
