See attached image, the post is clearly referencing a topic, not intended to be a heading. I’ve similarly seen blog posts that start with “#<day>”.
At the very least, headings should be excluded from title markup.

I’m also considering just escaping the first character if it’s a #
Edit: It’s going in the next release. I hate doing something so one off but this issue has come up a few times before and I think this change is worth it. Starting in the next release if the title starts with a # it will be force escaped. This will break posts where the author intends to format the title in large letters but I think this is such an edge case (and also annoying) that the drawback is ok.
Even then I think this might be a good solution. This prevents users abusing this to get attention. I don’t see a legitimate reason the receiver would like some titles to be larger than others
