Superheated Steam Header Drip Legs & Steam Trapping

I’m of the understanding a true “superheated” steam header will not produce condensate during normal usage. Assuming the steam is still superheated at the user/consumer.

Drip legs (drain points) and associated condensate release valves/traps are included for startup/shutdown/upset conditions.

However, since the aforementioned condensate release (drain) piping is dead headed during normal operating conditions…. Wouldn’t some condensate accumulate over time due to stagnant flow heat loss?
