The exim documentation has an example of using these headers to not send
warning messages (eg, message delayed -- still queueing) for bulk, list,
and junk Precedence messages. Failure notices get sent, but not "will
keep trying" notices.
That is a great relief to list managers who really only want to see the
delivery failures and not the dozen warnings that come before a failure.
By the way, I always thought that the origin of Precedence was in UUCP.
I really doubt it was invented for vacation.
