Well, pair of mags coupled you could have the best of both worlds.
Mag one: 40-60gr NBT/vmax ext.
Mag Two 64gr Bonded solid base/trophie bearclaw/60gr NPT/62gr M855 ect.
You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.

Nosler's 64 gr bonded soft point might be an interesting choice for short range. The tip is a "protected point" (slightly blunted) and I expect it would make a large impression on a bad guy.
But I still want to shoot a deer with a 220 Matchking out of a .300 Blackout, and see if the bullet really tumbles like buzzsaws...

Thanks, Tex. The M193 expending most of it's energy in 10" of gel looks like the best for home defense out of all of those. I'd like to see M193 compared to SP or HP 223. I'm looking for something to stop a BG without injuring neighbors. Don't see a need to shoot through barriers in my own home.

Mag Two 64gr Bonded solid base/trophie bearclaw/60gr NPT/62gr M855 ect. I'm of the opinion that it'd be better to just pick one and rock on. Put a bad guy standing sideways so his vitals need 10" of penetration and give me a magazine of bullets that penetrate 7". I'd bet my life on the fact that he'll end up dead. If I'm gonna shoot once, I'm gonna shoot twice, so put two in him and repeat as necessary. His vitals are gonna be reached pretty quick. Pick on decent load, practice hitting, and don't worry about if you have the "right" mag in the gun at the right time.
your flippant remarks which you so adeptly sling

I think muzzle flash should have a consideration as well....

I'd worry about muzzle flash and loud noise indoors long before I'd care about which bullet.
