In general, I'd agree. However, I would like to get information of any
peer device being in active PBC mode. This would require either getting
those Probe Request frames

I think I like that alternative better :-)

I know I wouldn't find it quickly ... can you be more specific about
what "being in active PBC mode" means? Is that easily detectable?

I'm thinking we should just document this (and be as specific about it
as we can) in the documentation for the offload feature.

Remark from the sideline. One of the motivations for the P2P find offload (when done on the device) is that the host can sleep, right? So how/when does wpa_s want these Probe Request frames. After the driver/device completed the find?
