By your suggestion, a short sword or dagger (or hand axe or hammer or whatever) as off handed weapon gives you 2 pts of protection with no DX penalty, whereas a Main Gauche — something designed for this purpose — gives you the same 2 pts of protection but with a -1 DX penalty. The Main Gauche is obviously the inferior option in this case.
