Plain and simple question?
Does it? Less resistance and more heat? Does it bring more flavor as well as plumes?

More heat = more flavor??

Nope. It depends on your juice and your taste buds and on your juice delivery device. Some juices prefer a bit warmer temperatures--for me, it's usually tobacco flavors and coffee. Delicate flavors like fruit or some desserts do better with cooler temps.
I don't think heat increases the flavor. But some people like the warmer vape to a cooler vape. It's all preference.
What I've experienced is that with really hot vapes the flavor sort of dropped off But that could be different for anybody.
What usually brings out flavor for me is surface area, this also lends itself towards nice plumes but not huge clouds. Some juices change flavor as you heat them. What was a nice custard with egg notes and spice can turn more of a caramel flavor. But heat, in the builds I have done so far, usually equals less taste or worse scorched taste.
Well, if the flavouring is a % of the juice then more heat = more vapour = more flavour? I find I have to vary wattage through the course of a day, as low as 6W first thing in the morning and late at night, or it makes me cough, and up to 12W in between.
It's a balance between heat and airflow, coupled with the ability to feed juice to the wicking. The more juice you feed, the more heat it takes to atomize it. With more juice and more heat, you need more air to balance the temperature of the vape and prevent burning the juice.
I agree with Dave. Do it right and within reason and more heat (watts) gives more flavor, vapor and TH until it becomes too much heat and then you get burnt hits.
Some devices allow more heat to be used than others, as do some juice mixes. A dirty wick and coil will always not take as much heat as a clean setup with the same device and juice.

AHHH The need for VV/VW & adj air flow. There are to many variables for 1 solid answer. Dave is right on the money. Batteries, coils, wicks. juices,chambers, tanks & people are all different. I tend to leave 1 juice in 1 tank on top of 1 battery. Thus 14 combos. Most are inexpensive
If you change anything, it will change the flavor. It's as simple as that.
Now the fun part; try changing different things, and see how many different combinations you can discover that produce that same flavor that you want. Trust me, there are a lot of different ways to end up at the same place.
The basics of thermodynamics are, electrical power heats the coil, and wicking & air flow cool the coil.

I've told this story before, but my local B&M is owned by an ECF veteran who's been around in the vaping world since 2009. She handed me her DNA20 mod one day with a Nautilus Mini on top. It was set to 23.5 watts with a juice I'd used before in the tank. I vaped it and the draw was pretty loose ... enough to lung hit easily ... and the vapor was cool, tasty, and thick. I blew clouds like I had never done before.
The difference was that she had drilled out the air holes on the Nautilus several magnitudes larger. That allowed high watts and good flavor without the heated vapor issue. I really liked the vape, but $120 was more than I wanted to pay for clouds.

How about flavor when it comes to coil surface area? Will a coil with less wraps at 3/32 ID produce better flavor than a coil at the same resistance on 5/64 ID which will be longer with more wraps? Assuming same wicking material and eliquid flavor ect...
