GoLang's understanding of what timer.Reset() should do does not match mine

foo.go

package main

import "time"
import "fmt"

func main() {
	longTimer := time.NewTimer(1 * time.Second)
	time.Sleep(5 * time.Second)
	fmt.Println("We agree that longTimer has fired, right?  That will become important in the future.")
	longTimer.Reset(1 * time.Second)
	shortTimer := time.NewTimer(5 * time.Millisecond)
	select {
	case <-shortTimer.C:
		fmt.Println("This is the behavior we expect: 1 second is longer than 5ms, 'by a lot.'")
	case <-longTimer.C:
		fmt.Println("This is the behavior GoLang delivers: Reset() did not actually reset the timer.")
	}
}
