Even the "fix" is... ugh: instead of exposing monotonic time, time.Time contains both a wallclock time and an optional monotonic time, and operations update and use "the right one(s)". Also it's not that the implementation was incorrect, it's that Go simply didn't provide access to monotonic time in any way. It had that feature internally, just gave no way to access it (hence https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16658 https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16658).
