-  A status code outside the 200-299 range denotes an error from the _application point of view_

-  For example, a `404 - Not Found` is a response like any other. 
-  The request went out; a response came back; here it is, thank you very much.
-  We'd have an exception only if `#{_priv}http` failed to operate (e.g., it errored internally).

-    Because a status code outside the 200-299 range _is an error_ from the application point of view,
