Either I'm not communicating the point very well or I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish. I'll try again:
With Hoolio's solution, the F5 will not offload SSL in ANY circumstance other than when all the servers are down, at which point it will offload ONLY to redirect the traffic to the destination you provide. If all the servers are down, the LTM will not be forwarding traffic to them anyway.
The problem you are encountering has nothing to do with the industry leading technology, it has everything to do with the encryption parameters defined in the SSL protocol, namely, if you have no cert and no key, you don't get to see the traffic.
