No.  As a matter of fact, in that case the collection *is* a function
(which removes the current buffer from the available choices).

The reason is because that `completion-metadata' says that the
completion category is `buffer' and because completion-category-defaults
says that for `buffer' completion, we should use the `substring' style
by default.
