Makes sense for the people who like that kind of thing I guess, but I don't want my gun to be small. Only thing a small gun is better at than a big gun is hurting your hands.

yeah size and weight are carrying optimizations.

with my situation i think if a handgun is going to be beneficial i'm not so worried about it printing

Printing, you mean like showing under clothes or wearing a worn spot on pants?

Concealability and portability, no?

Especially with it being a .380

Concealability for sure, smaller guns allow "Deep Carry" which makes them almost completely undetectable in contrast to larger guns that print easily and require restricting your choice of clothing.
