An example of a route that shows up in old TIGER data as one is Audubon Drive in Laurel... which shows as MS 15 Business, and you can still see the MS 15 shield on it in Google Maps for some reason.

I don't think that's always the case.  It seems to me that the 1xx designation is usually utilized when a bypass is built around a city or town; for example, when US 45 was routed onto a bypass to the east of Meridian the old routing through town became MS 145.

Georgia:
the 1xx designation typically just is meant to indicate an old alignment of the highway, i.e. 178 in the NE part of the state

When and why was MS 15 changed from being a continuous route? And I've noticed Google maps still has it on I-110 despite being truncated.

MS 15 has always had a gap between Perry and Stone county as far as I know. I am aware from looking at MDOT Linear reference model data that they seem to have a continuous route on their wishlist, with a road to fill in that gap down as "proposed".
