The dead zone only relates to the following stick aiming mechanism: there is no movement until your stick goes past a stick position zone. This zone is called dead zone. To use a mouse as on PC we need to counteract this mechanism, because we want small mouse movements result in small screen movements.

See the Calibration tutorial.
Sorry.. I shouldn't have called them normalized parameters.

Regarding deadzone.. The fact that lowering the exponent, and not upping the deadzone is what smoothed my aim (like I said, deadzone seems to have little to no effect to making a smooth slow aim), you think this is a function of a bug in the game then? Or am I misunderstanding what deadzone really means?

I can't tell as I don't have the game.
