Advice on Picking a Camera (X-T3 vs X-T4)

I will buy either of the two cameras very soon (perhaps tomorrow), so I need your advice.

I have compared the specs of each camera, and I know that the X-T4 comes with IBIS, a bigger battery, a fully-articulating screen, and is bigger/heavier and more expensive.

Now, the obvious downsides of the newer model are: size/weight and price and the exclusion of a battery charger, whereas the screen is a divisive issue. I don't care about these cons very much (I am ok with the price and the size/weight, and in fact I like a fully-articulating screen). These, I guess, are the main reasons that on sites such as Amazon or BHPhoto the comment ratings of the newer model are lower than the X-T3.

My question is this: apart from the cons that I mentioned, are there any that you have personally experienced? For example, I have read some people say that the X-T3 focuses better than the X-T4 or that the latter overheats more than the former. I have even read that the IBIS is noisy or that its long-term durability is questionable.

So what is your experience with the X-T4? Do you think there are important downsides to this model?

ps: I am mainly a stills shooter. Perhaps the IBIS is less important in my case, but even for photographs, it might be nice to stabilize the non-OIS lenses.
