How to Implement Scrolling Display for MIDI Inputs on Arduino Opta with SSD1306 OLED?

Interesting, yes, I suppose having the buffer would be the spec. Assuming that was the intention, I wonder if it has to do with MIDI being designed to really isolate things well. I guess if it is a product I'm going to sell, which it might be, I'm a little leery of calling it "MIDI" if I don't match the spec perfectly... though it might not matter. As far as configuring it as a buffer, it that a matter of programming it to do so, e.g. - this input = this output, or is there some other low-level way to take care of this? Given 2 pins for I2C, 2 pins for MIDI in/out, and maybe a status LED that's pretty tight IO-wise. As it always is with an '85, which is sometimes what makes it fun-ha.
