   Looking into this, I think, clearing the buffers of the child vector might 
release memory that is still in use elsewhere. And this might lead to 
unexpected behavior or errors as we are explicitly enforcing a buffer clear on 
the extracted ones. Also, I think the clear was only meant to be used to clear 
the vector's buffer not its child buffers. But I feel like this is not 
precisely documented, as it only says "Return the underlying buffers associated 
with this vector".
