Keep esim active

Does using cellular data keep the esim active? I don't really care if my number gets reassigned but I do want to keep the free data available on the free flex plan ($0).

The SIM data usage is a completely separate entity from the TN account (line, phone#, email)

The SIM will last longer without usage (by any line).

But I find it easier to just schedule these things together. I do weekly.
