A mix of novelty, storage space, and lower maximum necessary capacity.
Currently riding a bmx has been more enjoyable and more versatile than road, but less than mtb. I was hauling a trailer with mtb but would like to avoid that due to added bulk and trailer related frustrations.
I was hoping to eventually have a real eco cargo setup for getting to and from street markets or fairs, to carry the bags and setup to sell my wares, but that’s still a long way off. More useful is a small bike that I can haul more than I can carry on my back but less that I’d get a lift in a car.
Means I can store it easily in the shed, and still carry ‘heavy’ loads of material or hardware that I acquire from the various scrap places in Swindon. So far the rear rack on the bmx has given me just enough capacity. I think that two pizza rack sized spaces with suitable structural integrity will be more than enough for my uses.

What about a crust type fork. If you ran cable brake you could even swap back and forth between cargo fork and normal fork with just an unclip of the cable at the lever and a tighten of the stem.
If you already have a mtb, the only extra you'd need to store is a fork and wheel rather than the whole bmx cargo thing

This is to my interests. Why do you want a mini cargo bike over something normal size with a bigger platform?
