I'll make this more simple than the gun choice; get a new job! As you said your life >> job.

As for the many J-frames you can simplify it by breaking out each option group and comparing them instead of comparing each gun and its many options.

Frame material: steel, aluminum, scandium
Aluminum tends to be a good compromise in weight, corrosion resistance, cost.

Frame type: hammer, shrouded hammer, hammerless
Hammerless is often preferred for snag-free draws, and the expectation of DAO use.

The above two often lead folks to get the 642/442.

There are a few other things like sights (integral or otherwise) and grips (laser or not).

It's a lot easier to compare one option than it is to compare a gun with many options.
