Getting "Sorry, something went wrong [...]. Please try again." but throttling is the reason the request has failed.

[StevenDufresne]

Context and steps to reproduce

I'm trying to create an account but I keep getting the error message:

Sorry, something went wrong when trying to create your account. Please try again

After inspecting the API request, I see I am getting this error:

{
   "code": 403,
...
   "body": {
      "error": "throttled",
      "message": "Limit reached. You can try again in 60 minutes. [...]"
   }
}

I'm not certain how I got into this state. I was trying to test a few accounts in the onboarding process. I don't believe I was doing anything too abusive.

Potential Solution

If the user account is throttled, we should relay that information to our users.
