I guess it raises the issue of why the direct connection is attempted. Presumably it is possible that all the configured downstream proxies refused to pass on the request to the origin server, but that *this* server succeeds in passing the request to the origin server. In that case, the result could be anything that the origin server returned. No?
The purpose is to cover the case where none of the downstream servers are available - remember that it will only retry (or try direct connect) on bad gateway - if one of the proxies refused to pass on the request, then a proper response code would be returned and the direct path would never be attempted.
