Though abnormal and atypical often have different implications ;-)Or USUAL.The words "typical" and "usual" have the same problem of making it sound like there was no error.
Not to me. "Usual" is typically an adjective, which makes me think: usual
what? (something is missing). Although both can be used as nouns ("the
usual", "the new normal") in this context "usual" is much less confusing
(I don't recall hearing "the command returned usual status").
