This blocks libvirt from using it.
In addition to Dan's comment about the dead sentence,

This is backwards. It should read something more like:
@option{append} specifies that QEMU should append to the file. It
defaults to off, for truncating the file instead of appending.
Or maybe:
@option{append} controls whether QEMU truncates the file (default if
omitted, or if specified as off), or appends to the file (specified as on).
Check if there are other similar wordings to borrow from.
