I would prefer

  (via <remap> <display-buffer>)

instead if we want to get rid of the doubled word "remap".  For some
reason I find your version harder to understand.

Maybe because there are a lot of components involved: the explained key
binding, the remapping key binding, the command remapped, and the
"target" command - and it's not trivial to get them into the right order
in my head to understand what is going on.

Michael.
