No, a single device from a two device Btrfs raid1 is normally mountable degraded,rw. I did this just a week ago when bug "kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/locking.c when mounting with previously missing device". At one point when reproducing it, I was running degraded,rw with a single device for several hours without problems. Try -o recovery,degraded I would drop the other options for now, since they aren't necessary to recover from a device failure.
