OTOH, trying to force CP7 to use the secondary and local streets by creating custom profiles has not worked very well, possibly due to some routing logic as mentioned above.
.

I have found that CP7 is VERY reluctant to use smaller roads, even when a waypoint is selected that happens to be on one. I have a route that I use for work which avoids the local town centre and gets me out of the 30mph limit v quickly; despite the fact that I have placed 2 waypoints on this route, supposedly to force CP7 to go the way I want (and the road, although unclassified, has no speed limit) and CP7 tries all sorts of things to avoid doing it - including demanding a turn directly away from a waypoint which is less than quarter of a mile ahead and with no other way of reaching it!

Anyone have any ideas?

I have found the same problem with both CoPilot 6 and 7.

The routing is very reluctant to use smaller roads (especially if they are roads with no name), even when instructed to do so by carefully-placed waypoints.

Suggest you send examples to ALK, as I have done.
