Smaller stuff is very handy.
Some people must have biggest... be it # of cylinders, HP, perhaps Amps on a power tool, etc. But that can also be inefficient and more difficult.
For example, I prefer to use 1/4" drive as much as possible when wrenching. Its smaller, lighter, more manuverable. I used to turn a blind eye to 1/4" drive, thinking bigger is better. Now I think efficiency is better.
There certainly is a time and place for more power, but smaller and lighter can be a major advantage...
