What is the difference between flip and flip summon in yu-gi-oh?

If a face down monster is attacked, then it is flipped for damage calculation, if you flip summon, you do it by choice during your turn. Flip counts for both.
For Flip cards like penguin soldier, if it is face down and your opponent attacks it, the effect is activated.
For Flip Summon cards like swarm of scarabs, if it is face down and your opponent attacks it, the effect is NOT activated.
Both types are activated if you flip summon it.
(Also flip activates after damage calculation if you are attacked, so if penguin soldier would be destroyed by the attack, he can't return himself to your hand because he is already destroyed)
