The cast shows it all. asciinema rec works only after changing the conda virtual environment (the specific environment I change it to does not matter). The error is not due to a missing or broken package, but due to an unknown term (which is weird).

Terminals tried:

st-256color
alacritty
xterm

All of them with the exact same outcome (except the change in name in the first non-green line).
