It is often the case that minor static advantages don't count for much unless they are coupled with additional dynamic assets, such as more active pieces or a lead in development.
Stockfish is a wonderful tool, but remember: it's not enough just to notice that the machine recommends a move - you need to understand why. If it's not immediately obvious, play a natural move for the other side and keep digging until you'd be able to explain and demonstrate to another player why the machine evaluates things the way it does.
