I am not a plomero and have little plumbing experience, but when I re-piped my house in pex back in 2009, the plumber shared that no one used CPVC for the reasons you described and that pex was becoming more and more commonly accepted and used by the day. I'd be surprised if by now it isn't all pex. Hope this helps a bit.
