SQS Redrive Delay

Question

I have a lambda function triggered by an SQS queue. When the lambda fails to process a message, it redrives the message to a dead letter queue. The dead letter queue is configured with a delivery delay of 5 minutes, but any messages are visible and processed immediately.

The delivery delay seems to be getting ignored. Is this supposed to happen? Is there a way to configure a "redrive delay" for an SQS?

Looks like this is working as intended per this post from 2016 - https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?messageID=702896&#702896
