The PPQ can have the magazine installed where the P-30 can't.
It's funny you bring this up as now we have SIG Sauer making this requirement a part of their advertising for their new striker fired pistol and suggesting it functions as a safety feature. I don't really understand why you would want to take the pistol down with the magazine still in. Isn't it standard procedure to remove the magazine and check that the chamber is clear?

The P-30 has to have the slide and frame lined up just right to push the pin.
I know what you're saying, but to me it's not that hard once you do it a few times. As a tip, I put the tip of my thumb between the slide and the barrel and it causes that gap in the slide to line up perfectly with the pin.
