If a error is return developers can decide to retry it or not.
Do we want to automatically retry request in the http stack without surfacing an error, I would say no. Some requests like POST are not safe to retry by definition. (Firefox will not send POST request during 0-rtt)(although http stacks already do retry request automatically in some cases due to network error)
