OK, so Mach Buffet is associated with Mach Crit?

If I had read it right, Mach Trimmers were explained to allow stable flight in this range (allowing higher cruising speeds). Perhaps this is what confuses me. Do jet transports cruise below their respective Mach Crit's (Vmo or Mmo is below Mach Crit)?
