We have had no problems with copper wire inserted into the lead. In fact it takes some pull to get it out again.
Personally I wouldn't tie HT leads together. There can be considerable induction between the leads. If one plug fails to fire the induction between the leads causes other plugs to fire at the wrong time.
It was very instructive watching the distributor test rigs running when I worked at Crypton. This has spark plugs, a coil and the distributor under test mounted on a rig. The distributor is turned with a motor. Any bad or disconnected plug in the system disrupts the firing of other plugs.
