I don't think I've ever seen a simple explanation of the mix blend modes. Seems most people use them in a trial and error kind of way.
Surely one exists as they're a very common tool across Photoshop and now web, but is just swamped by the people repeating the basic instructions.
Feels like an explanation might need to split between various tasks but focus on the fact that you are changing each pixel by different amounts. The confusing thing is that the choice of which pixel to change, and how to change it, is a combination of the source images and the blend mode.
