This idiom doesn't express the same meaning as "beside the point". "This won't hurt a bit" is an expression often used by nurses before giving someone a shot or injection.
This idiom doesn't express the same meaning as "beside the point". "I've searched far and wide" expresses that the speaker has looked all over for something (information, treasure, a person, etc).
This is the best choice here. The expression "this is neither here nor there", has a similar connotation to the phrase "beside the point". Both expressions indicate that something is "off topic" or "unrelated" to the established subject. For example: The fact that my wife, Cécilia, has left me, is neither here nor there, I will still become president.
This idiom doesn't express the same meaning as "beside the point". "This is all well and good" is generally said when the speaker is uninterested in the superficial or trivial aspects of something and has a different concern.
