This code does not what you think. `\r` matches `<C-m>` *only* unless
it was transformed into a line break when reading file. `\n` does
*not* match `<LF>`, it matches *line break*, whatever it is.
This means that the above code *will* conceal `<CR>` at the end of
line, but only if you opened a file with CRLF linebreaks as a file
with LF linebreaks. And you can’t possibly conceal the line break.
I guess what you need is something
set list
let &listchars='tab: '
autocmd BufReadPost * :if &fileformat is# 'dos' | setlocal
listchars+=eol:→ | endif
except that `setlocal listchars` is not doing what you expect
(listchars is a global option).

I have already got used to this, but I think it would be better if
there was no such inconsistency: I now sometimes try to use `dw` as
`de` because of `cw`. And I don’t have a universal and just as short
replacement for `cw`.
