No. At least not in this way. I'll try to explain:
If a contact is linked to a company then if you create a formletter the
address of the company is used. Regardless of the address which the
contact has. This behaviour is changed with this config in that you
still get the "person" address regardless whether it linked to company
or not.

I have no idea :-) since I am not a programmer.

I am not sure what it should do but at our installation in outputs
nothing... But this is the Enterprise formletter which you can generate
when your are looking at a company. It has nothing to do with single
person contacts (I think).
