Any evidence of that? I note Microsoft's own documentation

(https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstrate.office.com%2Fip-domain-management-snds%2Fpostmaster%2Ftroubleshooting%23errors&data=05%7C02%7Cmichael.wise%40microsoft.com%7C31539444dc03468ced8208de70ce0d31%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C639072227479757896%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Ej280VM5BR7FLfBpaixOwxgSQ7cyvGbeHAIVPlBMUKI%3D&reserved=0<https://substrate.office.com/ip-domain-management-snds/postmaster/troubleshooting#errors>)

indicates this kind of situation would receive a different message, e.g.:



421 RP-001 The mail server IP connecting to Outlook.com server has

exceeded the rate limit allowed. Reason for rate limitation is related

to IP/domain reputation. If you are not an email/network admin please

contact your Email/Internet Service Provider for help.



421 RP-002 The mail server IP connecting to Outlook.com server has

exceeded the rate limit allowed on this connection. Reason for rate

limitation is related to IP/domain reputation. If you are not an

email/network admin please contact your Email/Internet Service Provider

for help.



421 RP-003 The mail server IP connecting to Outlook.com server has

exceeded the connection limit allowed. Reason for limitation is related

to IP/domain reputation. If you are not an email/network admin please

contact your Email/Internet Service Provider for help.



(not that I expect Microsoft to follow their documentation, but :shrug:)
