After some investigating, it seems that, if they were scheduled to be
run at precisely the same instant (i.e., their delayedCall.time values
were equivalent), they would be run in the order OPPOSITE than the
order that the callLater calls happened.

There is no "collision", they're just run in sequence. Twisted is not
a hard real-time system. :-)
