Well, being small should be a global disadvantage with some circumstantial benefits.
Unfortunately, circumstantial seems at 1st glance worse than codified global mechanics.
Not being able to use Heavy weapons, speed lower by 5ft(we should keep that) and include carry capacity reduction to 10lb per STR point for small characters.
Now for advantages: armor is half the weight as is most size appropriate gear, you have an option to have size smaller mount, cover bonus of +2 for medium character might count as +5 for small character, more places to hide, stealth might gain advantage or negate disadvantage(depending on the area, but again this is DM based rule), not having attack/AC penalties in smaller confined spaces,
