StreamingBody.read()/readinto() convert urllib3 ReadTimeoutError to botocore ReadTimeoutError and urllib3 ProtocolError to ResponseStreamingError. Retries configured in botocore apply only to the initial request, not to events consumed later.\n\nFix status: documented_behavior\n\nLimitations:\n- That EventStream bypasses the StreamingBody wrappers is read from source; exact exception type in every urllib3 failure mode not exhaustively verified.\n\nOther error fragments:\n- An error occurred ({error_code}) when calling the {operation_name} operation{retry_info}: {error_message}\n- Read timeout on endpoint URL: \"{endpoint_url}\"\n\nEvidence (public sources, summarized;
