Ok. I have had my next round of film returned and I have worked up a few images for comparison. Much of this is for my benefit, but I am posting here in case anyone is interested.
This is not meant to be some sort of film vs digital as if there was a winner. They are different. But I am seeing a place for film in my kit.

Definitely differences in the color balance of the film. The Cinestill seems to have a red balance, 4a vs 4b and the sunset shots.
Way back in the day we would choose between ektachrome, kodachrome or negative films from fuji or Kodak. Even kodak negative 'pro' vs regular had a different balance.
I seem to recall we played with a couple of steps with ektachrome developing and could push saturation in a couple of colors. Don't even get started on B&W in a view camera and push/pull developing.
I agree that the highlights in digital 'small sensor' format blow out, certainly was the case between 35 vs 120 film back in the day, eFtr (for the right vs to the right) is a concept I try to remember.
Brant thanks for all the effort and sharing. Very helpful, will improve my exposure efforts.
Really good stuff.
Way too freaking messy for my efforts now.
If you see me with a wrench, call 911
