I think this is because the script's address is derived from the hash of the validator function/onchain code, so it can only use hardcoded strings in traceError or traceIfFalse. -> I did not have any luck getting decodeUtf8 to run on chain either. I'm guessing that's because the hash I was attempting to print out didn't resolve to utf8. | |

Wrong initial answer. Provided a working one

That won't work as show is not an inlinable function and thus cannot be used in the validation (on-chain) part of Plutus. Those functions you mentioned are meant to be used in the off-chain part of Plutus.
