Well, there are a few differences. Yes, you can get the same signals, but some types of signals are harder to achieve with one stick. The biggest one that comes to mind is driving the left stick all the way, and the right stick none or slightly forward, for a bigger arc. You can do it with one stick, but it's harder to control the amount of arc, because most people don't understand the 1-stick code fully.
