Well if you assume Urobuchi isn't trolling then he does say the OP is one big lie so we shouldn't deduce too much from it.
Also about the title,way back in an early interview Shinbo said it was him who insisted on putting "mahou shoujo" in the title because he thought that if he didn't people wouldn't consider the show a magical girl show,though I'm only paraphrasing a translation,here's the original quote (translated by sirn):

タイトルの「魔法少女」にこだわったのは自分なんです。それがないと王道感がなくなるし、王道 から外れると なんでもありな作品になっちゃう気がして。ちゃんと「魔法少女」というカテゴリーに入れるもの にしたかった 、というのがあります。
It was me who is particular about "magical girl" in the title. I feel the show would lose a generic-feeling without it, and if we lose that generic, it could become anything else altogether. I want make a show that could be put in a "magical girl" category.
