Not really. For the record, the full paragraph is:

  Export options can be set: globally with variables; for an individual
  file by making variables buffer-local with in-buffer settings, by
  setting individual keywords, or by specifying them in a compact form
  with the '#+OPTIONS' keyword; or for a tree by setting properties.
  Options set at a specific level override options set at a more general
  level.

There are three ways (four if you use a subtree export) to tweak export
settings. The last sentence means that more specific ways have
precedence over more general ones. IOW:

  #+OPTIONS or #+KEYWORDS > variables

and in the case of a subtree export:

  Properties > #+OPTIONS or #+KEYWORDS > variables
