Where does it say anything about Titanium being used? Am I missing something?
The high cost is probably due to paying someone to TIG weld all those segments together!

I never said Ti was being used, I said I'd assume it was because as others have menioned there is no point in cutting like that unless A: it's Ti or B: the bends are so tight it could not done on a mandrel bender. That with the wording

makes it a little confusing for me at least. They don't look so extreme that they would need that many welds IMO tho (for S/S). I do agree with you that either way a lot of the cost is the labor....
Maybe the OP can get clarification from 5Zigen.
