It's a no brainer or concealed carry. Get the Shield. It's so comfortable, concealable, and shootable.
Someone above mentioned the size difference and, though it doesn't sound like much, how much more comfortable and easy it is to carry the Shield. Spot on!
I agree that it's not the best option for a "combat pistol" or even a range gun (due to capacity, not shootability) but the purpose of the Shield is to carry.
If you want a full sized gun, get a full size. I realize that some can't or won't get more than one gun, so I guess I can see getting a compact in that case.... but a compact makes for a mediocre carry gun and a mediocre range gun and a mediocre combat gun.
Buy the right gun for the job, not a mediocre "inbetweenium".

IMO, you got that bass ackwards. The Shield is the tweener; too big for a
true pocket gun, i.e. the grip is too long... a micro it ain't.
