He lost in the sense that he filed a lawsuit and that lawsuit was dismissed.

It seems like a reasonable way to use the word, no?

Obviously so.

Hmm, I wonder why the title of the article doesn’t say the lawsuit was dismissed or why.

I think it's fair to say the headline misleads, even if technically accurate. My initial read was that he had lost on the merits of the case, and not "jury rules Musk sued too late".
