Can anyone persuade me in my choice please? I've never bought A/T tires before, so I'm having a hard time. Thanks in advance!

The ATX qualifies for a 100$ rebate right now and Discount Tire Direct has been running flash sales frequently as of late. The flash sales are a bit tricky (you have to figure out if your tire qualifies, few do) but you can end up with a great deal.
The ATX was not available when I chose the AT3W. I would say that it seems to me to be the other most promising P metric AT besides the AT3W. I would be very curious to test a set just to see how they compare.
I wonder if the ATX trades a bit of performance on rock off road and in rain on pavement for longer treadlife.
As for LT, neither is a great option. While the Wildpeak offers extra wide steel belts in both P and LTE and the ATX offers extra strength steel in both P and LTE, apparently, both the AT3W and the ATX weigh too much for LTE tires that lack a third sidewall ply.
