of course it complains, it was a typo from me, sorry. The real command was "btrfs check --readonly ...", just to ensure that no writing takes place.

On the larger file system only "btrfs check --repair --readonly ..." was
attempted (without success; most command executions were documented, so
the results can be made available), no writing commands were issued.

--repair will cause write, unless it even failed to open the filesystem.

    If btrfs check accepted both --repair and --readonly without
complaining, then that's a regression and a bug. --readonly should be
mutually exclusive with any option that might write to the FS, and if
it isn't any more, then it's been broken and needs fixing.
