I think it’d be way more precise to have a soldering iron where the tip is close to your fingertips, just like a pen.

JBC makes soldering stations where the tip is pretty close to where you hold. They are also very expensive compared to normal soldering stations.
Those stations use a cartridge system, where you plug the tip into the holder, and the heater is around the tip, inside of the holder. But it is much simpler to just have a circular heating element poking out of the holder and the tip fastened around it, which makes it long.
