Hi Brian, nothing so special for the history. The "tried" mechanism was just born around 2004 with local clusters in mind, and then a bit stretched when the ideas of multiple redirection levels were implemented, with the versions up to roughly 2008. With the ideas of metamanagers, roughly 2009, it became clear that "just jump back to the top of the tree" started being insufficient, and no choice was really good if it was based on remembering only one failed node. A full-blown implementation would probably have to remember and avoid all the already erroneously visited nodes.
