get_logs sporadically returns formatter conditions error

I am connected to an Infura node.

When I call w3.eth.get_logs({"fromBlock": x, "toBlock": y}) I very sporadically get this error. Calling the same get_logs call again with the same parameters resolves as expected. This is the error:

Saw a similar issue here that was closed but not sure what the solution was: #2165

It's probably the provider limiting how many blocks you can query at once. Try decreasing how many blocks you're querying or use a local node.
