Description
We could use Retry-After or something similar to avoid unnecessary retries. Since the retry backoff time increases gradually, this could lead to a longer delay than the recovery backoff delay itself.

Research direction
Start by locating the cloud task's retry handling and the recovery backoff logic, then trace how a review request's recovery delay is checked. Determine how Retry-After or an equivalent signal should prevent unnecessary retries, and verify that retries no longer occur during the recovery backoff delay.
