 We're now using a new `stagingBuffer` with `stagingBufferMemory` for mapping and copying the vertex data.
 In this chapter, we're going to use two new buffer usage flags:
-Note, we have to create a temporary pointer to a new vk::raii::Buffer object
-because the vk::raii::Buffer has the constructor deleted and thus doesn't
-play well with std::make_unique, this is just a trick to get it to work.
 
 * `VK_BUFFER_USAGE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT`: Buffer can be used as source in a memory transfer operation.
 * `VK_BUFFER_USAGE_TRANSFER_DST_BIT`: Buffer can be used as destination in a memory transfer operation.
