I fail to see the difference between
... | Out-File -Append
and
... | Out-File -Append -NoClobber
Both append information to the file, both don't overwrite the contents, both create the file if it doesn't exist. And yet, all the examples on the internet use the combination of -Append and -NoClobber.
Am I missing something?

The document is now checked out and no one else is able to edit, until checked back in. When a document is checked out, a green arrow is displayed on document icon.
Open the library with the file you want to check out, select the file, click the ellipses (...) in the tool bar, and then click Check out. You can also right-click the file, click either Advanced or More, and then click Check Out. A note is displayed while the file is being checked out.
The Excel or Word file contains an unsupported object, such as an Ole Object, SmartArt graphic, chart, or Ink object. Try opening a version with an object to see if it's blocking co-authoring.
With Office and OneDrive or SharePoint, multiple people can work together on a Word document, Excel spreadsheet, or PowerPoint presentation. When everyone is working at the same time, that's called co-authoring.
-NoClobber will set the FileMode (how the operating system should open a file) to CreateNew (= if the file already exists, an IOException exception is thrown), unless -Append has been specified in which case it will set the FileMode to Append (= opens the file if it exists and seeks to the end of the file, or creates a new file).
So, for all practical purposes, -Append -NoClobber = -Append
