+If `array` is an `Array`-like object (that is, one with a `length` property of
+type `number`), it is treated as if it is an array, unless it is a `Buffer` or
+a `Uint8Array`. This means all other `TypedArray` variants get treated as an
+`Array`. To create a `Buffer` from the bytes backing a `TypedArray`, use
+[`Buffer.copyBytesFrom()`][].
+
 A `TypeError` will be thrown if `array` is not an `Array` or another type
 appropriate for `Buffer.from()` variants.
