So, what's the purpose of using both 1338 and 1007? How do you know which one will predominate? How do you control the contributions from each?

You really don't....I try to get the 1338 to get the main frame of the beer and as I cool the 1007 (which has a lower temp tolerance) takes over ....the result has been great (smooth taste)
