good: website works
annoying: website unreachable
worse: website kinda sorta works but half the normal content is missing and half the queries hit 500 errors, and the status. subdomain says everything is fine, and the 500 errors contain a fun quirky message but are only delivered in response to API interactions so the user never sees that message
