Does the delay node only fire once like a "do once" node?

I came across a vid the other day that suggested this, and claimed this was the difference between the regular delay node and the retriggerable delay node. This had not occurred to me, is this true? thanks

Retriggerable refers to you being able to reset it mid-delay.
If you trigger a delay node and trigger it again before it has finished the delay, nothing will happen. Doing the same with a retriggerable delay will cause the delay to reset.

call 5 second delay → wait 3 seconds → call same delay node
results in a 5 second delay

call 5 second retriggerable delay → wait 3 seconds → call same retriggerable delay node
results in an 8 second delay
