Good point! But even if I call
        self.page = QWebEnginePage(None, self.profile)
self.page.profile().isOffTheRecord() still prints as False.

If it works for you in C++, could this be a problem with the
Python bindings? Or does it only work if I pass a non-null parent?
I'm not sure what the parent is supposed to be: the documentation
only says it's a QObject but not what sort of QObject. The
QWebEngineView? Apparently not, that errors with "unexpected
type" even though it supposedly inherits from QObject.
