The Cross County Parkway is missing Exit 7 (https://www.google.com/maps/@40.9277022,-73.8402938,3a,75y,113.33h,96.29t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sZRcEXG0zvtK4aOW4kxndIQ!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3DZRcEXG0zvtK4aOW4kxndIQ%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D65.47824%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i16384!8i8192!5m1!1e1) at Broad St.

I recall bringing this up when the route was first drafted and the feedback I got was that it's deliberately excluded under the "1 point per interchange" (1PPI) policy on the grounds it's not really a fully distinct interchange from exit 6.
It's a debatable case, sure. I'd probably include it but I don't really have a strong opinion.

The only argument for 1PPI that I could see is the proximity to Exit 6. I personally think that because it mainly serves two roads not served by Exit 6, nor does it overlap at all/share ramps with Exit 6, it is a separate interchange.
This may be a bit of an exaggeration, but IMO considering CCP Exit 6/7 to be one interchange seems the same as calling Exit 4/5 on the Saw Mill River Parkway one interchange.
