Description
### Expected Behavior
should get an Error: Couldn't connect to server
### Actual Behavior
When send request it gave a 200 with the data of the last successful request that happened even though it should be a error cant connect to server.
I confirmed i didn't have the server open by sending a post request with different data which said was a success then get the info which did not show the updated value because it was actually just an error but insomnia reported it as a 200 with the past data.
### Reproduction Steps
I'm not able to reproduce but this is what led to it.
Server stopped on Friday
Insomnia left on until Monday
pushed commit from insomnia default git system
Monday tried to send request which gave 200 even though server was off
Restarted insomnia 2 times
bug still happened
start the sever then everything back to working

Research direction
Start by reproducing the request sequence against http://127.0.0.1:8000 with the server stopped, including the POST followed by GET after leaving Insomnia open. Compare the displayed response with the expected connection error and determine whether the behavior persists after restarting Insomnia; done means a stopped server is not reported as a successful 200 response.
