Losing my mind! What BM paint finish to use?

I have gone back and forth on this so many times I am dizzy!! I need to specify a paint finish so my painter can finish!
I am using primarily BM colors (with a few Pratt&Lambart and Dunne & Edwards shades)
It seems that all the BM paint finishes have a problem:
I was going to do Aura--but I am afraid I won't be able to color match right.
I was going to do BM Matte--but I heard that it burnishes and does not touch up well.
I was going to use a flat--but I heard it marks easily and is not washable (and I have three young kids and a big dog--I need washablitliy/scrubabiity!)
Can someone please advise! I am driving my poor DH (and contractor) crazy.
I need something that can exactly match the paint colors I have already chosen, is washable and is able to be touched-up. Is this just not possible?
I am now leaning to using the flat-- my architect claims that it can be cleaned with a Mr. Clean sponge/eraser sponges. Is this okay for the paint?
Thanks.
