Glad they've made such a noticeable difference for you, Harv. My experience of one piece leathers tailor made, compared with Dainese 2 piece, is:-

Pro - I've got the best possble lightweight armour available and Kevlar inner (only £130 extra).
Con - not good for road riding because it's a struggle to get my leg up onto the pegs due to tightness - may ease up.
Pro - can wear a back panel in these which was not possible in the 2 piece which had no room for a back panel.
Con - have to get help to get out of them and going for a pee is a major hassle.
Pro - They probably look more professional than my 2 piece
Con - they cost twice as much.

I mainly bought them because I thought I may be racing in the DD next year. Now that I've decided I'm not, mainly on account of events this year, I wish I'd bought a tailor made 2 piece. But hey ho - when I'm a famous writer/lawyer I'll be able to buy new leathers on a whim

If you haven't already done so, try wearing an undersuit. Not only will it keep you cooler in the warmer weather, you'll find your one-piece suit will slide off fairly easily.
