I think it was Matt Helm who once found himself in one of those interminable arguments about "What caliber for (whatever)?" He brushed it off with, "You can kill an elephant with a .22 Short if you're willing to wait for the poor thing to bleed to death." Only metaphorically true, of course, but it makes a point.

Nonsense, you know why. It's cute. So are its cousins the Model 20 (.25ACP) and the Model 21 (.22LR).
Plenty of tiny pistols out there that are arguably more reliable than the Beretta tip-ups, but none as cute. (Walther TPH anyone?)
:). You have a point. After all, I've been known to rescue dumped dogs and even feed stray kitties.
You forgot to mention that the Minx is effective in against Grizzlys, too. If attacked, simply shoot your companion in the knee and then make a leisurely escape.
