The G26 is superior to the G43X, but a chopped down G19 is superior to both when we are considering ten round pistols, for one particular reason. I have no use really for either the slim lines, or G26s, but the chopped G19 gets carried a lot.

Superior to shoot, but 43X superior to carry. I've been carrying an M&P 1.0 SC (about the same size as a G26) as of late and man, it conceals well but it's a chonky boy.
The 43X carries so much better but it's a game of give & take, you gotta pick what works well for the situation. For me? 48 at work @ 1-2 o'clock, G26-sized @ 4-5 o'clock for public carry if i need to be discreet.
I have no problem concealing a 19, so I have no reason to get a 26 or 43X (I hate the 43). A 365 with anything more than a 10rd mag is getting close to G19 butt length. In descending size, here's my list:
Glock 19
I don't have a 10rd 9mm, but if I felt the need it would be a P365
Glock 42
LCP

Beware of my temper, and the dog that I've found...
HCM, does that other federal agency authorize the 43X or just the 43?
The boss is a smart guy, but not really a gun guy. He's looking for a plainclothes duty pistol and has narrowed it doen to the Glock 19 and the 43X. I'm pushing the 19, but could always use more ammunition like failed law enforcement testing.
