question about C arrays

Well, taking that this is true:

char buffer[] = "test";
buffer[1] == 1[buffer]; // ('e' == 'e')
I suppose that when you use [] it's like writting
buffer[1] == *(buffer+1);
so.. why i can't declare an array like

char *(buffer+10);
?

Saving 15 seconds of newbie idiot programmers' time isn't worth losing 15 minutes of productivity from the senior dev who had to interrupt their train of thought to answer the idiot question.
