It appears to me similar as #bug58859 [1]. The issue is that almost all
Guix subcommands process command line arguments from right to left.
When mixed «behaviour» argument as ’-D’ and «action» argument as
’--check’, it seems missing a plan to always process using the same
order. Unrelated to “guix shell”, it had been discussed for “guix
package”, see [2].
