I don't really know what I'm talking about nor do I have a horse in this race, but could it be that small handed surgeons struggle with tools because the tools themselves are designed for big hands?
that does seem plausible.
A valid hypothesis
The size of the tools are dictated from the use of the tool, not the surgeon's hand size. You simply have the same tool in different size.
