I'm guessing from all of the titanium work that I've seen that Ti cannot be bent?

It can be, its just very difficult to find the bends "in stock", or have them made, very $$$

I did it on the subaru project. Weighed about the same as aluminum would, but about 10x the cost, and 100x cooler!!

Titanium work-hardens very easily. I would presume at that price, pie-cuts are cost-effective even with a master weldor at the helm.
