According to the DMG, the Trident of Warning doesn't give any bonus to attack or damage like a magic weapon would.  Is this a mistake or meant to be?

Plenty of magic weapons don't have bonuses, including the iconic flame tobgue. It's fine: the game doesn't need them (the math works fine without) and they're still magical (unlike previous editions).

Also tridents aren't allowed to have anything nice

It will damage creatures that are only damaged by magical weapons, so the magical aspect is not wasted in combat.
