Is there a current reason why pre-commit shouldn't be invoked during
rebase, or is this just waiting for a reviewable patch?

The reason that we don't run the pre-commit hook is that the commit being rebased may have been created with "git commit --no-verify" and so running the pre-commit hook would stop it from being rebased - see e637122ef2 (rebase -m: do not trigger pre-commit verification, 2008-03-16).

I think that most of the time it would be valuable to run the pre-commit hook when committing a conflict resolution but we'd need to add something like "git rebase --continue --no-verify" as a way to bypass it when resolving conflicts in commits that were created with "git commit --no-verify".

This was brought up before at [1] in 2015, but that thread so old at
this point that it seemed prudent to double-check before investing time
in a developing and testing a patch.
