Yes, I know very well this.
My observation was about another thing:

the disk clone operation itself, that is one step of the "clone from
snapshot" activity; the process

/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -t none -f qcow2  ....

that starting from disk of VM1 creates the disk of VM2 (its clone)

I presumed that if host1 had in charge VM1, it would have been host1
in charge of making the disk clone.
Instead I observed that the disk clone operation was in charge of host2...

Hope it is more clear now....

It has nothing to do with which host then will run the clone
