DNF is as graceful as a failure can be. RNF is less graceful, but at least your node replied, and didn't crash itself, or your entire computer. DNF means the key may be in freenet, but your request just didn't find it. RNF means your request wasn't able to search as much of freenet as it should have, and failed because of that.
