In theory (if I understand it correctly) it wouldn't - because it would only try the direct connection on DECLINED or bad gateway - if authentication was denied, the result would be neither DECLINED nor bad gateway, and so the direct connection would never be tried in this case.
I guess it raises the issue of why the direct connection is attempted. Presumably it is possible that all the configured downstream proxies refused to pass on the request to the origin server, but that *this* server succeeds in passing the request to the origin server. In that case, the result could be anything that the origin server returned. No?
