Well, it does make runtime disks.  

Let me explain.

Most people create there individual flows on their harddisk.  Having files
from this directory and that directory.  AmigaVision will (using the runtime
option) create a set of floppies with all that you need to execute a flow
from a floppy(s).  (It will not move fonts, nor the AmigaVision Executable 
however)

AmigaVision *is* REQUIRED to run the flow.

I had the same misinterpetation, until I played with it a bit more.
