Additional Information
This is expected with large deletes. When setting future=True, under the hood, the REST API process these large deletes more efficiently. The service closes the connection and produces the error codes, not the Python API.Workaround
Add the future=True parameter (as shown below) to delete the features with no errors.
item.delete_features(where='1=1', future=True)
