Even in that case, you can still practice the instrument approach
under VFR in VMC. I'm not sure why an offset ILS would be an
exception, since there is still a corresponding instrument procedure
to practice.

The point you raised was about tracking the ILS while making a straight in VFR approach. My only point
was that if it's an offset localizer (in the extreme) the tower might not think you're making a straight in
approach. If the tower has approved you doing a practice ILS approach that's a different situation.
