Exactly so, although my hands aren't small, they are slender fingered. Then there's the extra weight around my neck, 
extra space in the bag required, and so on.

Yup, in pocket or vest.

I disagree a bit here. burst mode transforms capture of moving things, compared both to film and to earlier digital with 
slow AF. These shots don't happen otherwise. <https://photos.app.goo.gl/QfYuA4uYUL8i1xqv8>
And this. <https://photos.app.goo.gl/opHJST4NJdPnDmiH7>

Even ones like this where a single shot would capture the birds, a short burst yields one with better arrangement of 
them than others. <https://photos.app.goo.gl/xbuf4eLXBG8NkHj16>
