I will consider a quick-to-give-up routes for the automated makecache runs:

thanks god that i have
a) a fast line
b) no traffic limit

if you pay for traffic over limits such "features" can ruin you

It's not an excuse for DNF or any other application, but bugs and unexpected routes through the download code happen (especially if it's designed not to give up if some partial operation fails). So with expensive connections you are always exposed to this danger as long as you use any software that stays running for long periods of time (or is executed repeatedly like 'dnf makecache') and communicates over the network.
