Confusing behavior of `restic forget`: two snapshots for the same time frame?

Yes, the sentence you found in the documentation explains it. If you neglect the first snapshot in the list, everything is as expected, right? This first one is a pseudo-yearly, -monthly, -weekly and -daily snapshot – it is just the oldest one there is and is kept because there are not enough for each kind.
