23mm f/2 as it's weather resistant, so is X-T2.

This - most people read 'landscape' and think you need the widest possible - family shots can be a little odd using a WA if you like to get some closer/candid portraits.  23 is much nicer for that purpose and you can shoot landscape with any FL.  I don't see OP mention being squeezed between buildings and wanting WA architecture images!  The 23 is the more sensible option here.  Though I don't see ANY reason not to take both ... the 23 would fit in even a small pocket
