s3 retries number not respect

[ltagliamonte-dd]

Hello folks, I'm experiencing an issue with the s3 client retries not matching the configured parameter (7 retries).
I'm using latest AWS sdk

github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2 v1.30.4
github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config v1.27.31
github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/credentials v1.17.30
github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/feature/s3/manager v1.17.16
github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/s3 v1.61.0
github.com/aws/smithy-go v1.20.4

From the logs I see:

time=2024-09-03T00:05:37.972Z level=ERROR msg="error downloading shards" error="download 23293 failed for <redacted>, Error: Error 2: operation error S3: GetObject, exceeded maximum number of attempts, 3, https response error StatusCode: 503, RequestID: <redacted>, HostID: <redacted>, api error SlowDown: Please reduce your request rate."

This is how i create my s3 client, and s3client.retries is set to 7:

        cfg, err = awsconfig.LoadDefaultConfig(context.TODO(),
			awsconfig.WithDefaultRegion(s3client.awsRegion),
			awsconfig.WithRetryMaxAttempts(s3client.retries),
			awsconfig.WithRetryMode(aws.RetryModeAdaptive),
			awsconfig.WithEndpointResolverWithOptions(resolver),
			awsconfig.WithCredentialsProvider(credentials.StaticCredentialsProvider{
				Value: aws.Credentials{
					AccessKeyID:     s3client.credentials.AccessKey,
					SecretAccessKey: s3client.credentials.SecretKey,
					CanExpire:       false,
			}}))
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	s3client.client = s3.NewFromConfig(cfg, func(o *s3.Options) {
		o.UsePathStyle = true
	})

I then download the object to local file with:

_, err := s3c.downloader.Download(ctx, file,
		&s3.GetObjectInput{
			Bucket: aws.String(s3c.bucketName),
			Key:    aws.String(key),
		})

What am i doing wrong?
