Were the plastic coated wheel guides on the brake block holders a CPSC change or just a design change that occurred at about the same time?

The date I have heard most often for the introduction of CPSC-compliant equipment is 1978. That would be date for the following items mentioned in the list from your message (quoted below): The lip for the front der, the crank q, the BB spindle 112-114.5, and the domed QR on the brakes. Other CPSC changes not mentioned were the little plastic shrouds around the rear derailleur adjusting screws and the curved QR skewers. Were there any others?

BTW, the Olympics were in 1984 and that is the date on the cover, but the catalog was published in 1982.
