Caliber wars type of topics come up a lot.
Maybe this is a new way to look at it...
You fly to stay with a friend for a week. He has a nice place out in the country. You're going to hike, go fishing, hang with mutual friends, ride motorcycles... various fun things you really enjoy doing.
The area is "iffy" at times. There are the occasional two-legged miscreants, but no large dangerous animals.
Your friend is a big 1911 fan. He has 1911 type pistols in 22, 32, 380, 38 special, 9mm, 357 magnum, 40 caliber, 10mm, and 45acp. They're all reliable and accurate and have similar triggers and sights. Due to their different sizes and specific magazines, they all hold the same number of rounds (8?).
Your friend offers to lend you one of his 1911's to carry around his property and keep by your bed at night. Which one do you choose?
Putting the question this way removes the variables of handgun type and capacity.
