What I mean is that I have this in my init.el:

(define-key mu-keys-mode-map "\C-c\C-n" #'mu-cleanup-buffer)

And I'd like to change it to this:

(define-key mu-keys-mode-map ["C-c C-n"] #'mu-cleanup-buffer)

But, with the first syntax every time I start/restart Emacs, C-c C-n is bound to 
mu-cleanup-buffer. Whereas with the second approach, on start/restart 
mu-cleanup-buffer is not bound to anything until I explicitly evaluate that 
second define-key statement above.
