Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior with an API call inside a try/catch, comparing a failed request with a 200 response. Inspect how request success and errors are surfaced, and confirm that successful responses do not enter the error path while failed requests do. The issue provides no file or test names, so a reproducible example is needed before implementation.

Description

I'm trying to use this to replace the last bit of jQuery in a wordPress theme and for some reason I can't fathom, when ever i fail a request, it is "successfull" and vice versa. This seems to happen when i use the try catch method and API calls.

I can inspect the requests and see anything with a 200 status code seems to trigger the error for me.
