By definition then, their server should have issued a 4xx series error if
retrying for delivery is possible, no? (referring to the last statement
about fixing the server)

Also, are you not able to detect the 5xx error and act on it? It's been a
while since I played with router and transport settings so I'm not sure, but
if you could you should be able to come up with something that would do what
you need instead of asking for a change to Exim itself.
