In DCAT v1 the property dcat:distribution is axiomatized

dcat:distribution
  rdf:type owl:ObjectProperty ;
  rdfs:domain dcat:Dataset ;
  rdfs:range dcat:Distribution ;
.
  1. Verify that the range is appropriate and necessary
  2. Verify that the domain is appropriate and necessary (see Review global domain axioms on dcat properties #110)
  3. Consider whether any guarded constraints (using owl:Restriction) should be introduced (see Use owl:Restriction constraints to bind DC properties to DCAT classes  #105)

I would vote to keep the domain and range here -- this property is one of the properties that are part of the backbone structure of DCAT:
Catalog > dataset > Dataset > distribution > Distribution

Do we need an inverse property here - to allow a distro to point to the dataset that it purports to instantiate?

In this case I think an inverse property makes sense.
A Distro will usually know which Dataset that it is related to.

Otherwise, Makx makes a compelling case for retaining domain and range.

No inverse properties please. They are not necessary. But that probably should better be discussed in a separate issue.
