5. Nxe5 is not sound if black replies with Nxe5 instead of Bxd1??

Wrong. At first 5. h3 B h5, than 6. Nxe5.

It's called Legal's mate, and it doesn't work in this position. Black plays 5...Nxe5 and White's down a piece for a pawn. I set up a rookie with this playing coffeehouse once, he had white and tried this in exactly this position. I played the correct move five and the poor guy freaked out.
