Comment (by plucmtl):

 The use case is when building an API that's integrated with WordPress'
 REST API but doesn't necessarily have to do with WordPress. What I'm
 currently doing is allowing users to authenticate to our custom API
 namespace using API Keys and Tokens stored in their usermeta. I'm doing
 this because we are shifting our previous, custom API to integrate with
 WordPress - but in order to do that without changing our mobile client, we
 need to be able to control how the errors are output so that they can be
 processed, without format changes, by the client. I would argue that if
 you can control the success output, you should be able to control the
 error output as well.

 Thanks!
