None of those titles, etc. are giving Divine worship to Mary. None of them.
It's called “hyperdulia”. Look it up. Read a good Catholic book about Mary and our devotion to her, and you'll learn that we don't worship her. Far from it. She leads us to her Son, whom we do worship.
This has been discussed ad infinitum on this forum, in countless threads, and you (and others) just keep repeating the same tired, old objections in the vain hope that something will stick. Well, it won't.

Ah yes, hyperdulia" is a term invented by Thomas Aquinas to distinguish the special form of "worship" due to Mary.
How closely related to the Apostles is Aquinas?
