Or the rewrite fails, raid assumes the drive is faulty and kicks it

EXACTLY what you are doing!
What's wrong with desktop drives ?
Once things start going wrong, they go pear-shaped very fast.

I did not mean "in general", but in relation with "Or the rewrite

Well, the timeout mismatch is directly responsible for a non-faulty
drive being kicked out the array ...
Thanks, I overlooked that line :
"the RAID code recomputes the block and tries to write it back to the
disk. The disk is still trying to read the data and fails to respond".
On the other hand, I have seen faulty drives report success on write to
an unreadable block then failing immediate read at the same location.
