that’s not a bug

What is it then? Why does it do that in the first place?

It's a channel-global rate limit shared by all users sending messages in that channel, rather than a rate limit just for your client, hence the different message to make that distinction clear. Your own rate limit may not be exhausted yet, but the channel-global limit is.

True but it's also sent when a single user hits the channel send limit for themselves.
