The output of an input neuron has a weight for every outgoing connection, so it seems that it would be redundant to have a weight for the input of the input neuron. Am I right?

There is no weight applied before the outgoing weights. However, sometimes you may want to manipulate data before passing them through the first layer. That is called preprocessing.
