Can I use Edit page as a Details page?

I have a very complex Edit form with a lot of checkbox fields, (snippet attached) and need a Details page that looks the same as the edit form. Problem is that checkbox fields don’t look like “checkbox” fields in a Details page.
Does anyone know a way to essentially copy the Edit page, so it looks the same, but make the fields “uneditable”.

I found a solution to this by creating another Edit page and disabling editing using this code.
#view_xxx {
pointer-events: none;
}

@Craig_Anderson, this is what I would have suggested, but also keep in mind that this form can still be edited by undoing the CSS in the developer panel, or accessed via API.

Thanks Stephen.
There is a pretty limited audience for this page, so I think the risk is very low. But appreciate the info.
