Why use SC connectors for the trunk line and only LC on the jumpers? Why not just LC everywhere?

Use SC to LC jumper cables in liquid tight conduit. LC for the radio end of course. One corning CCH panel is good for twelve strands of SC connectors. There are tiny enclosures for the cch intended for wall mount. They mount on nema4x enclosure aluminium back plates just fine.

Loose tube flooded and armored is best choice for tower riser without conduit?

I would suggest giving BT a call.
