My ebb  bottom bracket seems completely trouble free despite the steel pinch bolts being under torqued- on this basis would titanium pinch bolts be ok ?

You make an excellent case for leaving it well alone.

Titanium bolts notorious for galling / cold-welding - I would leave the steel ones well alone

My Ti stem bolts snapped. Leave well alone! I’m sure you can save 5g elsewhere.

Leave them alone.  Steel is the most common bolt material for a reason - and that’s not because it is cheaper.
