This is indeed more of a calibration. It should compensate for
difference between expected and actual output. I agree that the
CALIBBIAS seems to be a better fit.

offset has not been used in "official" way here. But I think this should
be sorted out if moving to CALIBBIAS?

Certain registers in the map needs the sync to take effect. I can add
comment.>
