I did read the intro, it similarly fails to define what does "danger" or "impaired" mean from the perspective of a webserver and why it would matter as part of the protocol. There's just nothing here that makes me think "this seems like something HTTP should be concerned about":
> create a dangerous situation, there is a pattern of erratic requests with the potential for danger, or the requester is otherwise detected as impaired.
"The risk a given requester represents" I mean... this is just so nebulous. Is this a special status code for webserver running in a breathalyzer? I'm convinced this is some kind of post-AI satire.
To be clear I understand the need for specialized devices to prevent misuse and user error. But the HTTP protocol is like, the worst possible choice for where to build that out. This is a layer 0 concern, not layer 7.
Who knows though. Maybe in a decade when Alcohol-as-a-Service startups are delivering fine liquor directly via the built-in straw of some next-gen Oculus headset, my virtual bartender will leverage this status when they cut me off.

Seems awful indirect for an HTTP standard defined status code. Like what is it trying to say, and who could do anything about it? Sounds like wrong layer to me without more concrete details surrounding an implementation utilizing it. .
