Digging into some of the HID APIs and it's pretty clear they just shoved a generic USB HID chip in a box. It reports over 1300 supported usages including things like “policeAlarm” and "privacyScreenToggle”

Continuing with the APIs I've changed from reading the raw report data to letting the system parse them into meaningful keyboard events and now all of the keys make sense. The dial is sending the full sequence of key presses to, for example press the command key, then c, and then release them. I think the next step is to figure out how to change the keys so I can more easily handle single events
