Buy a X-T10 and keep the X-A1.

I already have X-T10 and X-A2. I sold X-A1, I probably should have kept it.

The X-T10 offers an EVF

I rarely use EVF, I don't like that thing pressed against my face, I don't like looking through a keyhole, I usually prefer lower shooting point. It also much easier to control camera shake shooting from lower position.

and silent mode that your X-A1 lacks.

Why would I care about silent mode? I'm not some pervert who likes surreptitiously shooting people on the street. The only time I use ES is when I need shorter shutter times.

Colors and detail are different but both create good images.

Depends on your definition of 'good'. Once you shoot with both cameras you can't help but notice how much better colors and color definition are coming from the bayer sensor. Fuji shot themselves in the foot with x-trans.

...and you can bring 2 cameras with 2 lenses attached when shooting.

Why would I want to carry two cameras? I'm not shooting for money, I do it for my enjoyment. I definitely don't want such inconveniences. I might have an extra lens in a pocket, but most often I shoot with the lens I've chosen for the occasion.
