Apparently on-device speech recognition is only supported on some Mac devices.

https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/if-dictation-on-mac-doesnt-work-as-expected-mchlc480652b/mac:
Tip: If you need to dictate text when you’re offline, use Voice Control. See Control your Mac and apps using Voice Control. On a Mac with Apple silicon, dictation requests are processed on your device in many languages—no internet connection is required. When dictating in a search box, dictated text may be sent to the search provider in order to process the search.

This issue tracks adding a feature to support speech recognition powered by Apple. Since it would require sending data to Apple's servers, this should not be enabled by default and should require a flag.

Also, the current error: ERROR: Speech recognizer does not support on-device recognition is not too descriptive. It could be revised to include more context or suggest the proposed flag.
