Rod / Blank deflection comparisons

Recently I have been checking out deflection tests on a variety of mostly multi piece blanks and rods in line weights #6 & #7 and have been somewhat surprised at the variations that have shown up. Say between 3pce and 4pce versus 2pce.Are there any sets of tables / data that other rod builders have worked from particularly on rods and blanks from some of the major rod builders? Any info would be appreciated.

The 3 and 4 piece models may not have been designed to the same parameters as the 2 piece models. This is not unusual. They could be, but rarely are.
