Oh you’re right!  Then with some context-sensitive deduction, you would
guess DESTINATION as a buffer.

However having to rely on deduction and context to understand a piece of
doc looks silly, and if it does stuff with buffers it looks better to me
to clearly have the word “buffer” within near.  So I believe it is
better with a such fix: thank you!
