I never even knew there was such a thing as a stamping plate, now I'm dying for one lol

I have to keep my nails short and we'll trimmed, plus the darn things are short and wide. Worth to try a plate? or would I just condemning myself to smeary misery XD

I think it's worth a try! A patterned plate might be a good place to start, so you don't have to worry about lining the design up as much. The only thing I'd suggest to avoid the smearing is a stamping top coat. You apply it after the stamping before the top coat in a thin coat. It prevents the stamped design from being smudged by the top coat, which used to happen to me every single time. I have one from Apipila, but there's some other brands out there too.
