I can't explain all of those, but from my point of view - flake white is more stiff and covers better. Titanium doesn't cover as well and is more buttery.

I just purchased some soft mixing white - transparent. I had no idea what I would use it for, but wanted to try it. It is quite a bit more warm - towards yellow. I've used it quite a bit lately for adding some fabric highlights.

Hope this helps a little bit.
