Details:

man page should mention this will be the case:

$ wget example.org -O kk
$ wget example.org -O kk -nc
File `kk' already there; not retrieving.

Else one cannot be sure if -O will override -nc or the opposite, without
testing.

Why would one use both -O and -nc?
That is beside the point.

Some might use it to avoid an additional test -f ... || wget ...
