No, if a bit flip is detected the packet is simply resent:

> If there is a data error and the CRC check fails, however, the receiver will not reply with an ACK, and the transmitter is required to resend the data with the same toggle bit. The transmitter will continue to resend the same data with the same toggle bit until the receiver ACKs its reception.

Then my explanation of the observed phenomena is likely wrong either partially or fully.
