Comment:

 Note that the script is trying to upload using a different webapi server
 instance for each file, contrary to the
 [source:docs/frontends/webapi.txt?rev=4236#L1786 prime coordination
 directive].

 However, this should probably have caused an !UncoordinatedWriteError,
 rather than !UnrecoverableFileError.
