In commit 8829a1a412 we kept this code
when adding the reply API, but on second thought it doesn't actually
make sense.
The reply API should never fail with an edit conflict normally, since
it makes the edit on the latest version of the page. If it does fail,
I think it's better to just show the error message. Current behavior
is to retry, and if that doesn't actually solve the problem, this ends
up in an infinite loop.
