Does Wawa still have that dopey big goose?

Alright Preacher, this might be a better idea for you. How 'bout the trip you originally laid out in reverse? As I understand your preferences, I'd suggest that going counter-clockwise has numerous advantages for you. You would "have access" to more and closer people at the beginning and less wind exposure. If you end up behind schedule early, you can head out Twin/Dore' to make up time. P Narrows is a chute no matter which way the wind is blowing so plan to hit that early or late and get up early to travel. It's harder doing day-trips camped in there because of that.

Batch to Jesse is heavily traveled by Q standards. Not only is Jesse at the confluence of two routes, it's a destination/walleye lake with a ton of campsites.

Liz to Haliday might offer the best chance for solitude simply based on campsite number + location and portage use. There's old growth in there too. Sturgeon is heavily traveled. Oli, Fern, Bud? Again fewer campsites plus that portage is a mile. I've walked it numerous times from both sides, never portaged it. Not everyone considers that to be a portage they are up for and that makes it less desirable in loop/route terms. Don't be fooled by the pond in the middle. There's an unusual number of campsites right on or by portages through here. Some good hiding places too.

The other thing is if I don't know an area, I try to work out the approach going upstream. There's less chance of making a costly judgement error traveling upstream. Same thing with me and wind. Heading into it is a lot more controllable. Hanging on for dear life going down wind on Pickerel is rarely my idea of a good time unless conditions are perfect.

No pictos on your route to my knowledge and the moving water areas are not real spectacular but you never know. Beyond that, as with any route, the fishing is great, scenery wonderful, portages unique - and a nice mix too. There's some history along the way and prime moosey areas. Nym has cabins and boats. Sturgeon and Pickerel may have research or park boats on occasion.

Write all that down and take it with if you go that way. There's got to be at least two things in there that will make sense on a 10 day trip. Nice kindling in a pinch as well.
