Should it be better that we keep the same writing style as afterwards Buffer#write and use Buffer#from here ?

Buffer#write is used as a shortcut for Buffer.prototype.write, so it’s something you can call on a Buffer instance. Buffer.from() however needs to be called on the global Buffer object (just as it is written). So, no, it is correct to leave these as they are.
