So is there any advantage to the 1x cage over the normal cage?

Depends which cassette you're using. I'd stick with the old 2×10 RD if your biggest sprocket is 36T

Oh good point, the 1× ones are rated up to 42T. I've bodged an 11-42T in a 36T SRAM 10-speed derailleur before though, they come with really long B-screws.

I will leave it @PhilDAS to decide, if you want that GX 2×10 I won't bid on it

If you use the B-screw to bodge it onto the 42, you end up with the pulley miles away from the 11 and your shifts at the top end are shite. Any particular RD can only ever be optimally aligned to one cassette range
