Any "sweet spot" will be individual preference based on the condition of you eyes, the quality and resolution and size of your monitor etc etc etc and what it is you want to see on the map. That is why there are so many zoom levels and resolutions. I honestly don't think anyone plays the game with the same zoom setting "optimized" to suit their every possible need during the entire game and I know I usually use them all at one time or the other during a game.

The minimap is a way to get to different parts of the map quickly. It is NOT meant to be a magical overview map but gives a rough idea of map terrain and unit location. It's meant to click on to get from where you are to another point on the map quickly.

However, maybe someone might make a suggestion that will work for you. I don't have one beyond I play at the resolution my monitor works best with then adjust zoom to suit the situation.
