Seems like they were not seeing the race, and instead only saw that open connections would stay open if not explicitly closed during the graceful shutdown. Once the graceful shutdown was properly executed, it closed any open connections to that pod and stopped the 502s they were seeing. Sounds like either the race wasn't happening or they didn't see/care about it.
