I have some decent ideas as to why, I’m asking mainly as a hopefully fun contribution here, and to maybe learn some interesting plumbing info!

      Copper piping costs about double the cost of cove piping.

      If you want to repair copper, you need to use a torc and solder. That’s not usually possible if the repairs are in difficult to reach places.

      Cpvc usually requires only a crimp coupling.
