Is it expected to fail when I remove the ’-m manifest’ flag and I
just run ’guix shell -C -- python3’ ?

The command "guix shell -C -- python3" fails. It cannot work, because the environment (new shell) is empty. You need to provide what this shell has to contain, via command line package list or via manifest.

To my understanding, in this blog entry

 https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2021/from-guix-environment-to-guix-shell/

they claim that "guix shell automatically loads guix.scm or manifest.scm, from the current directory"

No need to "-m manifest.scm", then.
