m,
If the titanium coating is yellow/orange then it is actually titanium nitride which can wear quite well.
A coated aluminium rotor may have stiffness issues if very light and the coating will not have the same friction behaviour as stainless steel with pads designed for steel.
This all points to KCNC with standard pads as the best solution.
I have some of the yellow coated windcutter rotors, but they are steel and the coating wore away in a few rides.
They are heavier than the KCNC ones.
All weight saving helps, but a few grams near the hub is not the same effect as the same at the rims. Look hard at your rims, tyres and tubes.
