IT Probably is. Try looking a thing the Minecraft wiki. Oh, also: do you summon it so it's inside a block or immediately hits one? I don't think wither skulls actually have a life tag, I think they just explode when they hit a block.
This proves nothing. It is still an entity that has unique tags. That does not mean you can summon it. You used to have to give the skull an empty direction tag, but later I remember reading in one of the changelogs something along the lines of "wither skulls can no longer be summoned unnaturally". I could be confusing this with the change they made to summoning fireballs when you had to actually fill each record of direction with doubles, or perhaps I'm just thinking of 1.8-pre1 when summoning fireballs and wither skulls was broken entirely.
Either way, I also found this which might support my initial statement:
It proves that they still exist. Anyway, I don't share commands without trying them out for myself, and you can rest assured that you can summon these. Heck, try the commands yourself and you'll see.
As to your shared quote... It doesn't tell us much without the actual date when this was posted. Almost everything was unstable or incomplete in one point of time.
The quote has a clickable link to the original source at the end Searge's name, it's the little arrow icon.
uhhh you have the direction set to go straight down... Idk why someone didn't notice this in 2 years
Maybe because I was hoping you would realize that I intended for them to go straight down? Also this might be seen as homophobic. Try to use more sexuality-neutral language, like "go directly down".

If you follow your heart, it will only lead to your arteries.
My command looks like this. When I use it, it summons a wither skull that explodes immediately.
/summon wither_skull ~ ~64 ~ {direction:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],power:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],Life:108}

you dont have to type the _skull ~ ~64 ~ {direction:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],power:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],Life:108}
Is this some kind of joke?

I am fairly positive they removed the ability to summon wither skulls at least a few versions ago.
