Going from 1/2 to 3/8 won't have as much stress because the largest size socket in 3/8 drive is typically 22 mm. Which will not need nearly as much torque power as a 1 1/2 nut.
So less strain on a 1/2 to 3/8 adapter.
Community Reviews
Milwaukee's M12 FUEL stubby impact wrench is drawing attention as a compact, high-torque option for tight spaces and general automotive work. The 1 2 drive version is favored for flexibility because it can step down to 3 8 sockets, while the 3 8 and 1 2 stubbies are described as essentially the same tool with different anvils. It is also seen as capable for wheel lugs and light suspension jobs when paired with the high output 5.0 amp hour battery. The main caveat is that this package does not include a charger, and adapter choice matters because higher torque can stress smaller adapters.
Mechanics working in tight engine bays, because the 3/8 version stays smaller with low-profile sockets and adapters while still handling common fasteners.
DIY suspension and rust-belt repair jobs, because the high-output 5.0Ah battery helps it get stubborn bolts off in cramped spaces.
Shoppers who already own 3/8 sockets, because the 1/2 and 3/8 versions are the same tool with different anvils and the 1/2 can step down with an adapter.
Drivers changing wheel lugs at home, because this stubby-class impact has enough breakaway torque to remove lug nuts without a bigger wrench.
People who need a charger included, because this package does not include one.
Technicians expecting a compact setup without adapters, because 1/2-to-3/8 adapters can snap under higher torque.
Owners who already have a 3/8 stubby and a high-torque impact, because this fills the same role instead of adding a new capability.
Heavy-duty users needing 550 ft-lbs or more, because this stubby class is not the right substitute for a larger impact.

I would use the tools you already own to plan how you can skillfully finish a high quality project.

Go build / fix something great with what you already have.
I see the same thing in photgraphy forums where people are asking which lens or body to upgrade but they hardly have any photos to show or the quality is subpar.

I went for 3/8 because it seems like overall size will be much smaller with 3/8 sockets vs 1/2 impact with 3/8 adapter, and the 3/8 impact with a low-profile 1/2 adapter isn't much bigger than the 1/2 impact. Only concern I could see is if the smaller anvil doesn't last as long over time due to torque transmitted through less material.

1) 1/2 to 3/8 adapters snap all the time. The little 3/8" end just snaps right off on anything over 200 ft pounds. Torque Test Channel on YouTube confirms this.
2)get a set of low profile adapters. If you put a low profile 3/8 to 1/2 adapter it will add less than 1/2 inch to the tools length. It has also been tested that the low profile adapters lose significantly less torque than regular adapters.
3) get a set of 3/8 low profile sockets that go from 6mm to 24mm. Most 3/8 sockets go to 19 mm. These go up to 24mm so no adapters are needed and you will get the most power.
Number 3 isn't absolutely necessary as the low profile adapters do a good job of not lowering max torque that much, so you can just use 1/2 sockets. Check out recent video from Torque Test Channel

I also like watching the Legit Street Cars channel on YouTube. He disassembles so much of his cars with just the 3/8 stubby. In the end you can't go wrong with either 3/8 or 1/2.
