It does take into account if patrons category has setting "Can be guarantee"
enabled. In Koha::Patron::store:

if (    C4::Context->preference('ChildNeedsGuarantor')
                    and ( $self->is_child or $self->category->can_be_guarantee
)
                    and $self->contactname eq ""
                    and !@$guarantors )
                {
                   
Koha::Exceptions::Patron::Relationship::NoGuarantor->throw();
}

But yeah, syspref and errors don't implicate that syspref has anything to do
with other than child patrons.
