If I am following your question... what they mean is that some people have taken to formatting their books like a blog post. That means no leading indent on the paragraph, and with a blank line in between. Just like this forum post is. This is called "block formatting."
What they do not want you to do is BOTH. Pick either first line of each paragraph indented and no block formatting, or use block format and no indentation.
That make sense?
