I understand your concerns, but I do not have a concrete example tied
to a specific device model...

The intent here is to provide an additional rewrite opportunity, which
allows the write path to be exercised again and gives the underlying
device or stack a chance to recover or remap the affected range.

For remote storage devices, I/O may fail due to network or transport
issues. If the final attempt fails, MD can record the affected range in
bad_blocks. This behavior does not appear to be tied to a specific
device model.

For local storage, some controllers may have limitations or corner cases
in their remapping mechanisms. In such cases, a sector that could
potentially be recovered may be marked as bad, leaving no opportunity
for a subsequent successful rewrite.
