Documentation: does client-side socket really try to reconnect when client closes connection?

[tomtseng]

Documentation for 'disconnect' event on the client side: https://socket.io/docs/v3/client-api/#Event-%E2%80%98disconnect%E2%80%99

From the documentation:

The list of possible disconnection reasons:

Reason	Description
io server disconnect	The server has forcefully disconnected the socket with socket.disconnect()
io client disconnect	The socket was manually disconnected using socket.disconnect()
...	...

In all cases but the first (disconnection by the server), the client will wait for a small random delay and then reconnect.

This documentation suggests that even when the client calls socket.disconnect(), the client will wait for a small delay and try to reconnect. Is that really right? I don't see any reconnections when I call disconnect() on the client side. If there are reconnections, how can the client stop the reconnection behavior after calling socket.disconnect()?
