Can anyone offer some insight here?
Could someone please help here? Or at least chime in and let me know that Cura is even supported in some way? I'm about to give up on the forum in general.

I didn't see this. Sorry.
The different combing settings are meant to keep the nozzle from marring certain areas. Keeping travel within infill is generally a good idea and you don't want the nozzle zipping across a show surface either.
Another setting that can come into play and alter the combing moves is "Avoid Printed Parts when Traveling" (also "Avoid Supports when Traveling" when it's applicable.) If you have Avoid Printed Parts enabled then that might be the problem. The nozzle is moving outboard of the print to avoid the print.
In the Cura preview you should be able to turn on the Travel Moves line type and those outside moves will be apparent. If you play with the combing settings while the Travel lines are turned on you can make adjustments and see how the different combinations affect the travel.
Generally, the retraction distance and travel speed can mitigate the size of the boogers. The usual problem is under-extrusion after a long travel move as the internal nozzle pressure falls off during the combing move.
Bingo. Turning off "Avoid Printed Parts when Traveling" did the trick.
Faith restored.
Thanks GV.
