When I download a wu, I see...

>>> max # of error/total/success tasks 1, 2, 1

... and what I have always assumed is that it means if the counts there are reached, the wu won't be sent out again.

When this one failed on one of my machines, I looked and found that, yes, it was registered as a failure, (it crashed out after 8 seconds), but that it had been sent to another cruncher.
Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream.

Look at the timing of the resend, it is 19 seconds after your unit failed. That is what the 2 means, it will do a max of 2 resends, it is doing as it should. 1 initial send, then 2 resends if needed and only 1 needed for a quorum. Your unit crashed so it did a resend.

That are the numbers, that are allowed, i.e. 1 error is OK, 2 errors is more than allowed and the WU is marked as bad. It's the same on all BOINC projects.
