This is expected behavior.  Server creation is an async operation.  As long as the input passes initial sanity checks, there are a bunch of ways that it may fail and result in being put in an ERROR state.  Even if we did do this check on the API side, it wouldn't catch all cases.  There is a bit of a race condition here if two such requests came in at the same time.
