My post about them being used in for orchards came from this description in a Deere equipment brochure from the 1930's. The title at the top of the page (not shown here) was "Tractor Disk Harrows for Orchard Work" and this was the only model of offset in the book. Note the position of the hitch in the picture. An offset disk has a strong desire to turn left so the hitch is offset to counteract this force. The offset disks I used growing up would barely cover the dual on the left but would extend past several feet on the right. The sideways force on the hitch would usually make the tractor run at a bit of an angle with the back pushed several inches to the left when driving straight. These lopsided forces make adjusting an offset disk to pull straight much more challenging than with a tandem.
