[racket] When does 3D syntax get marshalled?

Here is a concrete example that is an outline of what I do. It works.
However, in my project, when I replace F with the form that I actually defined and mix in more for p's transformer, I get that new-tr cannot be marshalled in the compiled code. This baffles me.

#lang racket
(module A racket
  (require racket/stxparam racket/splicing)
  (provide M p)
  (define-syntax-parameter p #f)
  (define-syntax-rule (M id body)
    (splicing-let-syntax
       ([id
         (let* ([p-tr (syntax-parameter-value #'p)]
                [new-tr (λ (syn) (syntax-case syn () [(_ e) (p-tr #'(foo e #;mix-in-more-here))]))])
           (λ (stx)
              (syntax-case stx () [(_ blah)
                                   #`(splicing-syntax-parameterize ([p #,new-tr])
                                       (id blah #;mix-in-more-here))])))])
       body)))
(module B racket
  (require (submod ".." A) racket/splicing)
  (define-syntax-rule (F x) (list x))
  (splicing-syntax-parameterize ([p (syntax-rules () [(_ e) e])])
    (printf "~a~%" (M F (F 'small-example)))))
(require 'B)

Very frustrating.

Subject: [racket] When does 3D syntax get marshalled?

I have a fairly crazy macro that chains together syntax transformers that are stored in syntax-parameters to get a sort of "macro mix-in" if you will. In order to do this, I have code that looks like the following:
(define old-tr (syntax-parameter-value #'p))
(define new-tr (syntax-parser [(_ blah) (old-tr #'(modified-blah))]))
(syntax-parser [(_ macro-in) #'(syntax-parameterize ([p #,new-tr]) macro-out)])

Often this works. However, I am now putting this kind of code inside of a let-syntax that is the product of a macro that is given the identifier to bind in the let-syntax. The use of this macro uses the bound identifier, which (in my head) should just use this transformer, expand away and not have to be marshalled. There is no documentation for the term "3D syntax" so I wasn't sure where I could read why my mental model is flawed.

So, what could be happening here that would cause the marshalling?
