I don't even drink instant coffee or tea but when I see the kettle empty or with a tiny bit of water on it, I see red.
If it's a kettle which gets used frequently at work by a lot of people or something, I can see why you'd want it always full.

But for a home kettle, I read last year that it costs about $1.60 to boil a full electric kettle in Australia.
