The difference between "Playback Settings" and "Playback settings" is minimal and even to the "title case"-used eye, it makes sense. If we go for title case we will have to choose which strings should use it and what type. Even if it is not as complicated as you say I don't find a reason to not just stick to sentence case. Title case is just a habit and yes I am one used to it too, but I find it easier to maintain sentence case.
