Comment:

 Unfortunately these are the errors which cURL itself is returning, which
 sometimes don't include context of the request.

 If you'd like to submit this upstream to
 [https://github.com/rmccue/Requests Requests] the library we're using for
 HTTP communication, you may be able to get the error messages context
 increased.

 If you're seeing `Requests_Exception` exceptions, that suggests you're
 using the `Requests` functions directly within WordPress - please don't.
 Please use the [https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/http-api/ HTTP API
 wrapper functions] for it instead, which will allow plugins such as Query
 Monitory (IIRC) or Debug Bar (with HTTP add on) to monitor such requests
 and report/log when they fail (and what URL triggered the failure).

 I'm marking this as invalid for now - as it's an external library, and it
 appears you're not using the WordPress APIs for it.
