Working through both of these books. Halfway through the first one. Next one is on deck.

from 5 - m7
from b7 - bmaj7
which covers all the tones and extensions using arpeggios as a base.
wrong approach?

That's what I do, right there. Especially if you just mean Maj7 on the last one, off the b7. IV across the V. Sometimes I play the IV across the ii V.

1 3 5 b7 9 11 13 1 3 5 b7 etc
And if you take any three notes you get a triad, and any four notes you get a seventh chord, and so on.
So all the diatonic options are there. The four you mention are simply the first four options. Barry Harris teaches that any of these can be used freely...
Anyway those four are a useful teaching tool. You can convert any chord type into a dominant and vice verse .

Warren Nunes, and, apparently, others taught this...
Two types of chords from the major scale. He called them I and II. I'd call them major and dominant.
In a harmonized C major scale, Cmaj7, Em7 and Am7 are all major.
Dm7 Fmaj7 and Am7 are dominant. Bm7b5 is dominant, but it's a little different.
Now, in the other poster's example, basically, he's thinking G7 Bm7b5 Dm7 Fmaj7.
For the dominants, that's G7, a rootless G9, G11/D and G11/F.
Same as what he wrote, just another way to think about it. An advantage is that once you know the names in all 12 keys, it isn't just soloing, it's also substitution while comping.

Fewell wrote two books, but they aren’t really meant as a series. The “Harmonic Method” book covers much of the same ground in its first chapters as “Melodic” but goes way beyond.
The second book covers a lot of ground and is quite dense. In some ways the first book is easier to get started with. But if you want the whole package I would suggest skipping it and just getting his 2010 release.
He died not too long after that book came out, which is really a shame. I think he had some really interesting ideas for building lines. But I sense he was just pulling together how to explain and teach his approach. I know I’ve been left with questions I wish he could answer.
