The problem is that guix-daemon does not pass “fallbackness” settings to
‘guix offload’ (you can check (guix scripts offload) to see what
settings are passed.)

We should adjust guix-daemon and (guix scripts offload) to pass this
extra setting, though there are probably other bits missing.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
