You do realize, though, that a 2019 Mac Pro is not a "Mac model with Apple silicon" and it runs Intel CPUs?

Yep, Touch ID on the Magic Keyboard REQUIRES a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or M2)—there's no way around it that I'm aware of.

Oops, didn’t realize that. Anyone know if that’s a legit requirement or some kind OS or BIOS BS that easily be enabled on any T2 Mac?

No. The keyboard will work on an Intel Mac, but Touch ID will NOT work. I think Mr. Macintosh did a demo last year with an M1 and a T2, and the T2 didn't support Touch ID.
