It is my understanding that a code rate of 4/5 is the only one supported by LoRaWAN (although I can’t find this exact requirement in any of the LoRaWAN spec documents). If so, is it even necessary to report the code rate (i.e. in MQTT messages to the application, etc.)?

It does seem that way. It’s a string in LoRaModulationInfo, so there isn’t much chance to save space even in protobuf form.

Perhaps it is there for future proofing? There’s also a field for modulation type that is always just “lora”, which I can only assume is for a potential future use case.
