Which ATE brake fluid?

looking at ATEs site they have:

ATE SL.6 low viscosity, apparently for better abs, tcs performance. boiling point min of 265 and wet boiling min of 175, visc. @ -40 degrees C = 700 mm(mm/s)

ATE TYP 200 280 degrees/198 degrees, visc. @ -40 degrees C = 1400 mm(mm/s)

and

ATE super blue racing 280/198, visc. @ -40 degrees C = 1400 mm(mm/s)

are there any differences i'm missing?
in the end, convince me of what one to get.
thanks

Super Blue and Typ 200 are the same fluid, just different dies. Get first the blue, easy to tell when the old fluid is flushed. In a couple of years, replace it with the Typ 200.
