It's the latter, so authors can add related articles already in the  
system to the piece they're currently editing.

If it helps clarify, this is the content_* table that show the  
articles related to article nid 72:

mysql> select * from content_field_related_articles where nid = 72  
order by delta;
+-----+-------+-----+----------------------------+
| vid | delta | nid | field_related_articles_nid |
+-----+-------+-----+----------------------------+
|  72 |     0 |  72 |                         28 |
|  72 |     1 |  72 |                         67 |
|  72 |     2 |  72 |                         69 |
|  72 |     3 |  72 |                         44 |
|  72 |     4 |  72 |                         43 |
|  72 |     5 |  72 |                         26 |
