In the JSend specification, what is the difference between a fail and an error?

According to https://labs.omniti.com/labs/jsend,
- Fail: When an API call is rejected due to invalid data or call conditions
- Error: When an API call fails due to an error on the server
Can this be interpreted as 4xx errors (such as a 404) should always return a Fail, but 5xx errors always correspond to a Error?

Later on it says "it is advised that server-side developers use both: provide a JSend response body, and whatever HTTP header(s) are most appropriate to the corresponding body."...so if you think those errors are most appropriate to those situations (and broadly I'd agree with you) then go ahead.
