In this case it seems like a retry will change this API from "completely broken" to "working again".

  How so? I didn't mean broken as in the web server didn't respond or service wasn't running. I meant the API was broken, as in did not do the right thing.

    To ke "completely broken" means "broken beyond repair"

      That's not a definition I would agree with. Completely broken to me, in the context of API's at least, means it doesn't do at all what it is supposed, or documented, to do. A file server which claims to store files for late retrieval but saves all incoming files to /dev/null is completely broken from the user POV, while it's likely not beyond repair.
