I guess you are referring to this:

  -H HERD     Name of herd. If not specified, It will be empty. This requires
              either the -e or -m option.

Which could be interpreted to mean that -H must also be accompanied by -e or -m.

I think the sentence is supposed to mean that if -H is NOT specified,
you must specify -e or -m.
