    I found the issue!

    TL;DR: Disable your integrated Graphics via the BIOS; it wasn't my GPU, it was my CPU! (AMD Ryzen 7700X)

    I was in contact with AMD Support, they told me to get some system information logs. I read them out of curiosity, one of them included details on graphics capabilities. My GPU was showing up fine, including all HDR support flags. However, there was a second display device (my iGPU) that was showing HDR as unsupported. I got a hunch, so I went into Device Manager, and disabled my iGPU. Launched BF1, it said my driver version was 0.0.0 or something like that. Immediately, I knew Battlefield was pulling device capability info from my iGPU (but still using my main GPU for graphics). I went into my BIOS, and hard disabled my iGPU from there. Lo and behold, HDR now works in Battlefield 1. I've got the extra HDR tab in my video settings and everything.
