I guess I really don't understand how you get those results. I use a Wixey angle box to set the blade angle. It measures in a tenth of a degree. When I set the stops I used this as well, but I recheck when I change the tilt or move it back. I also ensured that the throat plate / zero clearance is absolutely in plane with the top. I use a TK WWII most of the time. I never have had a problem with blade deflection. Unless you are just shaving the edge of a board at rip, the forces on the blade should be equivelant side to side unless you push / feed unevenly.
According to my simple calculations, 0.02 degrees over a 3/4" radius is well under 1/1000 of an inch. My clamps would pull this closed. Most joints will see a jointer plane after a cut (I use spring joints).
