There is no real difference I can think of, all 3 of them are completely made up to serve the purpose of classifying Escorts.

As I've probably stated a lot of times, historical accuracy is a high priority, but so is getting all the parties and communities to use the same classification. And I sure as hell don't plan on agreeing to DE this easily, due to the overwhelming evidence that is available.

There's basically 2 choices currently:
 * 1) Convince everyone to use PF, even though they have pretty much accepted DE for whatever retarded reason.
 * 2) Go with EE instead, as Escort basically covers them all. This is also the suggestion NHHC came with, considering they do not agree with either PF or DE.

Seeing as I know that the majority has already accepted DE, while the minority consisting of historians actually provided hard evidence that it is PF, my solution is to settle with EE. We both know that they will not give up on using DE in favor of PF, no matter what kind of evidence you bring up. We have BB for battleships, we also have DD for Destroyers, EE for Escort makes perfectly logical sense if we consider the naming standard.

You see, just because you are factually right, it does not mean that the world will agree on it, as much as I want to support your decision.
