Looks like a good list...though I started with MAPP and now use propane....both work just fine.
I personally find little difference in starting. Propane is much cheaper here - less than half the cost. Though it burns at a lower temp, it is still a LOT higher than you need to start some charcoal.
I did id the other way, first propane then MAPP. Maybe it was related to the type of torch, but the propane would always extinguish itself when inverting the bottle, I though about buying those long necked torches. Do you not have that problem?
MAPP will last a lot longer than propane, but it is 3x the price. If I had to guess I would say it lasts twice as long, but I'm just guessing.... So the price is a factor I did not consider.
A good thing about a torch, is that it unjambs your upper vent, plus you start using it for other things...
