Default "keep with next" - conditions where it fails?

Check to make sure that List 2 isn't also set as KWN; if there are enough of
those paragraphs to (nearly) fill a page, Word will keep chasing its tail to
keep them together. Also, I hope I don't have to say that if you have an
empty paragraph ("blank line") between the heading and the list, then KWN
will not work.

25 page doc, mostly text.
Heading styles are all set to 'keep with next', no other styles do.

However- I see a heading 3 at the bottom of a page, apart from the
following paragraph, which is a 'List 2' style.

Any ideas why that heading isn't on the same page as its following
paragraph?
I did use Ctrl-space and Ctrl-q to make sure it was the style alone.
