The Characteristics section on weapons pages is designed to categorize advantages or distandvagates of the base weapon, or any bonuses the weapon may have (like being able to to 'X' with 'Y') and has nothing to do with combining mods to change the damage type.

The weapon deals toxin at base, so any advantage or distandvatnage related to this is listed as a result. Just like a high recoil weapon must be noted to have high recoil, even though -recoil mods exist. :)
