They can, and the reason is the number of states. With pass and fail only, a retry that passes turns a red run green, and an intermittent defect in the application becomes invisible. That is one of the most expensive kinds of bug to find. When red can also mean a blinked network or a dead browser, the team learns to rerun reds instead of reading them, and the suite loses trust.
Nexus StudioQA keeps the retry visible. A test that failed and then passed is not SECURE. It exits 0 in CI, so it does not break the build, but it shows in the report and in History as FLAKY, a pass with a reservation. See how the 14 verdicts are decided for the full order of checks.
