     replacing the entire hero and clearing the `name` property programmatically.
     Angular makes no assumptions and leaves the control in its current, dirty state.
 :marked
-  We'll have to reset the form controls manually with a small trick.
-  We add an `active` flag to the component, initialized to `true`. When we add a new hero,
-  we toggle `active` false and then immediately back to true with a quick `setTimeout`.

-  Then we bind the form element to this `active` flag.
+  We'll have to reset the form controls.
+  We call the `reset()` method of the form after calling the `newHero()` method.

-  With `NgIf` bound to the `active` flag,
-  clicking "New Hero" removes the form from the DOM and recreates it in a blink of an eye.
-  The re-created form is in a pristine state. The error message is hidden.

-    This is a temporary workaround while we await a proper form reset feature.
+  This will reset the `heroForm` and its status by clicking "New Hero".
