The biggest problem is that the 4/5xy codes are what to do about THAT message.

Big senders and big receivers are trying to use them to answer a different question: what to do about the NEXT message. With a few exceptions legitimate ESPs accept a 5xy as “don’t try this message again” and a 4xy as “keep trying until timeout”. (There are a couple that reattempt 5xy from different IPs, for reasons.)

There are "legitimate ESPs" on this list that have stated their policy of treating 5xy as a 4xy temporary error you can retry...
