This confusion seems to stem from your vocabulary.  The definition of append is to add to the very end.  What Dan is saying is that your variable name $append_xx is misleading, since you are not adding to the end of the file. You should probably use the name $prefix_xx, $prepend_xx, or $insert_xx instead.
Please note that you are indeed adding headers to files, but Dan preferred that you do not use the word "append" when you mean prefix.  Prefix means to add something to the beginning, and prepend is a word created to be the opposite of append.
