Are there other errors that would benefit
​​
from the pause
​/​
retry?
Like...
408: ('Request Timeout', 'Request timed out; try again later.')
503: ('Service Unavailable', 'The server cannot process the request due to
a high load')
504: ('Gateway Timeout', 'The gateway server did not receive a timely
response')
