Borrowing some ideas from your documentation on comparison:
"Compute a baseline CPU which will be compatible with all CPUs defined in an

My head got wrapped around trying to understand what this sentence, specifically
what is meant by "additional options". I assume you're referring to the
--features
and --migratable options?
How about something like this:
"When I<FILE> contains only a single CPU definition, the command will print
the
same CPU with restrictions imposed by the capabilities of the hypervisor."
and then leave it up to your description of the additional options in your last
paragraph to explain how to print the features?
"Specifically, running the"
+B<virsh hypervisor-cpu-baseline> command with no additional
options on the
+result of B<virsh domcapabilities> will return transform the host CPU model
I would remove "return" from this sentence.

"from domain capabilities XML to _a_ form directly usable in the domain XML."

+The I<virttype> option specifies the virtualization type (usable in the
'type'

I<emulator>
