Do we consider these onion domed? It's from a different Taccola manuscript: De Machinas

I'd say they're just dome-domed ;)
I also haven't seen any swallow-tailed merlons in his work, so I think it's likely the VM got its buildings from elsewhere. Member details

When people copied buildings, they would change such details at will. A perfect example of this is the walled garden in the Tractatus de Herbis tradition, which has straight crenellations in the southern manuscripts, which are changed to swallow-tailed in the Milanese Sloane copy.
