In Teradata (BT/ET) mode, a failing request automatically triggers ROLLBACK of the entire transaction before the error is reported to the client.

BTEQ retry is at the request level, so it won't re-do the BT or intervening requests, just re-submit the failing request (as a the only request in a new transaction) and continue. Yes, multistatement requests are implicit transactions, and often a better choice in BTEQ than using explicit BT/ET.
