As your quote-marks are no doubt meant to suggest here, there's really nothing
clever about code that relies on behavior that is somewhat obscure.

Why not take away some of the mystery and make the behavior here more
transparent by creating a function whose name suggests it?

(defun record-selected-window-buffer () ; Or `defsubst', if you prefer.
  "Move the buffer of the selected window to the front of `buffer-list'."
  (select-window (selected-window)))
