Neither V.120 nor X.75 are the worst, which is clearly V.110 ;->
Anyway, ISDN TAs which have no way to speak sync PPP (be it async/sync
conversion or some other sort of HDLC interface) are a pain to deal with
and belong to the same trashcan as V.FC modems and thelike. Plugging async
PPP into an async emulation on a sync medium just to get a sync protocol
to the other side is inherently braindead...
