How does ack work?

Recently I had yet another INSTEON device die, this time a LampLinc. It would not respond to any commands.
However, I noticed when I sent On/Off/Bright/Dim commands to the device, even after it was unplugged, Indigo did not generate any error messages. I was under the impression that commands were retried until acknowledgment was received or an error was generated.
Only when I tried a status request did an error get logged ("...send failed (no acknowledgment)").
