Certainly, if that has your preference. I just thought that because it
is a new paragraph and the ones before it talk about the meanings of the
arguments it would be clearer to explicitly state it's about the
function.

I actually would have liked to start the docstring off with "Create and
return ..." as the docstring for `clone-buffer' does, but checkdoc then
started complaining about the line being more than 80 characters long.
