The thing that's so annoying is that it seems to process data that it really should ignore. It has nothing to do with display at all, it's a pipe.
(I wanted to update that example with using star-prefixed grep and sort since the info manual says that should avoid emacs built-ins, but after five minutes of waiting I gave up.)
