Yes, that option prevents Icicles from binding any top-level commands. You can also use Customize to set it. As the doc says:
"If you change this from t to nil, then you must restart Emacs for it
to take effect. Going from nil to t requires no restart.
For this option to have an effect upon startup, it must be set before
you enter Icicle mode. This means that you must ensure that the code
that sets it is invoked before you enter Icicle mode. If you use
Customize to change this option, then ensure that the code inserted by
Customize into your `user-init-file' or your `custom-file' is invoked
before you enter Icicle mode."
