Ya, I didn't see anything specific in that part of the doc regarding NewTicker and monotonic. I did see that some things in time. do not consider monotonic clock. Then the blurb on NewTicker didn't say anything about monotonic.
I guess it's safe to assume NewTicker returns a monotonic clock time and that time would be evaluated by the functions that work with monotonic. Just wondering if anyone has had experience or knows something more specific about it.
