You need your overcloakers in the battle if you intend to keep the fleet hidden. If you split the attack ships off, they will be visible for at least two years instead of only one - the year after the attack they'll be visible because they were seen in the battle, and also the year you send them back to the overcloakers.

If your overcloakers are only intended to get the ships to one target, you are correct. My preferred use for overcloakers is for escorted bomber fleets. It's handy for them to be able to hide after a strike so they can hit again somewhere else. And if you are pulling the 'tempting target' trick with a cloaked fleet escorting an uncloaked fleet, the overcloakers will have to be present.
