What is, what I'll call from my layman perspective, the leeching factor of copper vs lead pipes though? As in, how much copper vs lead ends up in the water being transported?

The choice is not between copper or lead, is between copper or pvc, steel... or even ceramics. Lead is unsuitable for drinking water.
