__wt_row_search contains an insert flag bool to determine whether we can fast-path appends. During search near this is set to true according to this comment:
/*
* Set the "insert" flag for row-store search; we may intend to position the cursor at the
* the end of the tree, rather than match an existing record. (LSM requires this semantic.)
*/
if (btree->type == BTREE_ROW)
WT_ERR(__cursor_row_search(cbt, true, NULL, NULL));
With LSM removed in WT-12751, we should change this flag.
