I think even in the no-mse (regular playback), we have not to set the ReadyState to HaveNothing when an error occurs in playback because it's not true, we have enough data, just an error occurs in playing state.

see W3C spec: https://dev.w3.org/html5/pf-summary/video.html#dom-media-readystate
<<< HAVE_NOTHING (numeric value 0):
No information regarding the media resource is available. No data for the current playback position is available. Media elements whose networkState attribute is NETWORK_EMPTY are always in the HAVE_NOTHING state. >>>

In AVFoundation port, they explicitly set the ReadyState to HaveNothing only when they start a new load.

But I agree, I should put these explanations in changeLog and change the title of the bug and the patch.
