  There are no plans, and there is no "contact sales" gate behind the absence either — this is a
  U.S. federal agency publishing works of the United States government. Every API in this profile
  is free, anonymous and open to anyone, and no pricing, quota, tier, billing or account surface
  exists anywhere in the estate to record. The zero here means "there is nothing to buy", which is
  a different fact from an enterprise vendor's zero, and it is why no Pricing or SignUp pointer is
  emitted for this record.
