this is not completely clear, it seems that there are some towers that are
fastened with guy wires. E.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Unity#/media/File:Turm_der_Einheit_01.jpg
This clearly isn't a mast (or is it?)

yes, clearly not the best example ;-)
It's quite obvious that "steel and concrete" can be safely removed from the
definition, as almost any structure is made of concrete or steel (or wood
or masonry), and while a masonry mast likely doesn't exist (a chimney isn't
a mast I think), wooden masts are probably common as well (or are they all
called "pole" then, and the mast is used only in nautical context?).

Cheers,
Martin
