1- you have very little drag when you have rear overdrive hence greater speeds in general,
Correct. You are able to run tire splits / overdrive without the drivetrain of the front dragging the rear or vice versa because the moment when power is off, the front drivetrain is disengaged from the rear.

2- it is generally lighter (most times even lighter than a solid) hence translate to less rotational mass and more speed and
Don't think so. A one piece "solid" spool is still lighter in terms of rotational mass.

3- because you can coast or glide into a corner (usually faster than gliding with a diff or solid) you get smoother and faster cornering.
Correct. That's because the one way acts like a diff with a very light weight oil inside when off power.
