Observing the same. Is it the right version that's included?

I'm not sure either. If I checkout the https://github.com/arduino/mkrwan1300-fw/tree/master-1.3.1 branch, compile it and then generate the fw.h file the end results (fw.h) is different when compared to the one contained in the "MKRWAN_v2/examples/MKRWANFWUpdate_standalone". Beside this the version.h file contains:

/* Exported constants --------------------------------------------------------*/
#define __APP_VERSION_MAIN   (0x01U) /*!< [31:24] main version */
#define __APP_VERSION_SUB1   (0x03U) /*!< [23:16] sub1 version */
#define __APP_VERSION_SUB2   (0x00U) /*!< [15:8]  sub2 version */
#define __APP_VERSION_RC     (0x00U) /*!< [7:0]  release candidate */
#define __APP_VERSION        ((__APP_VERSION_MAIN <<24)\
                                             |(__APP_VERSION_SUB1 << 16)\
                                             |(__APP_VERSION_SUB2 << 8 )\
                                             |(__APP_VERSION_RC))

I'm using the latest AC6 tools from openstm32.org.

MKRWAN is a poorly managed project. Repos are a mess (with inconsistencies like this one), two API libraries, both with quirks, forums are dead and I'm wondering if Arduino has it on the "deprecated" list already.

wondering the same here... its a shame. The Murata and MKRWan versions never properly match. Documentation is very poor and forums are mostly dead. Examples will not properly work due to this. I wish I had known this earlier and I would have gone with something else. The Lopy4 from PyCom is a good option. It is not the Arduino ecosystem (its micropython), but at least it seems to be more stable and with better management and support...
