I may try making a mask only for the very tiny stars and see what happens.
Just how I make that mask may be the challenge as I'm pretty new to Pixinsight.

Peter if you get blocky stars you are undersampled, a workaround is to drizzle x2 your original stacking then you use resample tool in pixinsight, this eliminates the blockiness but does add time to your processing.
