I was fiddling with these settings and noticed a difference between the way above, and the set clipboard+=unnamed way. The latter will make it so all yank operations yank to system clipboard, including x/X. For me, that's undesirable, because I don't want single characters copied to the system keyboard one at a time (as with x, without a selection). But doing the remaps for p/y/d and related, were exactly what I was looking for.
Both ways are valid, just depends on what you're after
The nnoremap/vnoremap workaround does not seem to be required anymore. When I configure set clipboard+=unnamed, neither x nor d copies the content to the clipboard.
