While all of that might be true, if Mab wants the information, she could get it. Perhaps she didn't use the way, because she didn't want Harry to know about it, or it didn't serve her purpose.

It is also important that she arrives in style and she did exactly that.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Yeah, she is all about making an entrance, to cause awe, to cause wonder, to cause beguilement, or just plain cause Harry to crap his pants. All of those are just as good to her.

Don't conflate the size of the Nevernever with knowledge of the ways. Mab may know all the ways, even if she can't use them. She also knows how to manipulate them. For instance she knew where Hades realm was and she manipulated reality to connect Marcone's vault and Hades realm.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Again Hades wanted to audition the Winter Knight as a possible mortal custodian of the artefacts, so a link was made both by circumstance and design, Harry had to break in to maintain the integrity of the link, an invite would undermine it.
Mab isn’t an Intellectus, so she does not have a comprehensive knowledge of the ways. There are realms in the NeverNever shut to her, those of more powerful gods content to dwell in their own domains like Hades, some friendly, some not, and it depends upon what information they deign to give her.
Remember Mab’s power level through her mantel appears to have been deliberately set so that she is as powerful as she can be to be able to manifest almost full time in the mortal world without breaking reality too much, (except for the weather) even the addition of the Summer Knights power via the Stone Table to her Mantle is enough to cause an ice age. Her power level is too low for a general intellectus, like the Mothers or Uriel.
morriswalters:
I'm simply saying that she understands the nature of the connection represented by the ways. How they are made and unmade. She may have some control. Butcher is deliberately vague.
