I tried out deity in the previous patch twice
First game I went with a mostly peacefull dutch and the runaway was hitting the 80 tech at turn 330 (map size, speed, everything standard, tectonics map)
Next game I went with warmonger Japan and had been antagonizing the that game runaway all game, so that game at turn 330, the AI with the most techs had only 55
Soo based on on my experience of only 2 games which I realise is not a too big of a poll Id say its a bit weird behaviour and gameplay
The difference shouldnt be that big imho if this actually happens to be the normal case.
Also in my 2. game with Japan I was playing far suboptimally (4 city authority going for culture\domination victory with a mostly melee army(at least I got my samurais to lvl 23 I think, heh)) and still easily won just because I was soaking so much enemy units all game (won at turn 460 with culture after killing the kinda 2. runaway Brazil)
1 more note: that was one of my most peacefull games, my immortal games are not that peacefull: almost no1 declared war on me the whole game and I had 3 vassals and wiped Brazil out too. In my other immortal games being full peacefull, having more units , not using spies, not building wonders, giving gifts, denouncing the warmonger, not being the runaway I have all the time 9 civs constantly in war with me, so it was super weird.
I guess the "fought with a common enemy" factors in a lil too much
Even guarded Morocco wanted friendship with me
So yeah I too can see 1 peacefull being too weak compared to warmonger 2 diety being not super hard to warmongers
Which it should be imho too
Deity being "dumb hard" and immortal being balanced normally
Could be wrong tho just my 2 cents
