Description
I'm not sure where the other half comes from, my guess is:
https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/4a0b333e80a29ea29a8256285f8a01a54283b5ef/src/libraries/System.Net.Http/src/Resources/Strings.resx#L211
This error happens periodically (there are tickets here that reference it; we tripped on it during one of the many actions outages today).
The message isn't great. The response is to try again later, which isn't entirely wrong, but the message could use some love on all sides.

Review the related tickets mentioned in the issue for existing context. Done means the periodic 429 warning communicates the retry guidance more clearly without losing the relevant error information.
