Comment:

 After looking through this, I agree with using `wp_die()` for this
 specific error provided the `$this->last_error` is used. My thinking is a
 `wp_die()` will guard against the following:
 - retrying requests can result in extending the cool down period.
 - it's possible that some queries for a request could fail due to rate
 limiting but others may succeed. The consequence for both would likely be
 a scenario where only some of the information required for the request is
 available and the result is a visibly broken page.
