No it's not. Say you want to save a file. You're saving it in "/" which you don't have permission to write to. The system throws an exception PermissionException, this is a recoverable exception since the application could prompt the user to save the file in a different location.
That would be a retry with different state. I agree you could define transiency/recoverability differently, but I think my definition is more useful. This is because it provides a notion of transiency that can be handled regardless of the actual problem.
