I heard years ago that titles are heavily A/B tested. I.e. the title you see might not be the one the poster saw.

considering the url is the same as the title I saw, I really doubt that in this case.

There is no reason why there should be a hard link between title and URL.

Without knowing the height it is hard to tell. As an amateur radio operator I can put up a tower that is just under 200 feet tall without any real approval. Past that I would need FAA approval. It gets expensive, mostly because you need to keep the tower illuminated at night.

I agree, it's right next to an airport, so the FAA has jurisdiction over anything over 200 feet tall. What it's meant for is basically irrelevant, except the scenario where SpaceX lied to the FAA about what it is for.
