 The function ms_not_installed() does not set the status header 500,
 stating that there was some kind of error on the page. This is essentially
 important because services like Varnish would cache the page since the
 status header is 200 and not 500, like it should be. The best way to
 reproduce this issue is to set up a WP environment using multisite, after
 you have the site fully set up, set a query limit on the DB user to only
 be able to execute 1 query an hour and you should be able to reproduce
 this issue.

 Don't worry, my PROD environment does not have this actual DB user
 limitation, the issue that happened on my PROD environment was that the DB
 crashed after WP initially connected to the DB
