Not sure why a one piece would have lower deflection. I visualize deflection as being a function of the geometry and composition of the shaft in the first few inches from the tip. Can't see why the joint or lack of same would affect deflection. But, playing with a one piece cue is a nice...

I have a white diamond tip on my break cue. It is some sort of composite phenolic and fiber material and makes the familiar phenolic "ping" when breaking. For fun I have shot a couple games with it in the past and with that tip you can spin the CB and use a reduced amount of follow and draw...
