If i were in Frank's shoe, i'd opt for Button too.
Williams had worked with Button before and they worked pretty well, deciding to give up Button for JPM because JPM's talent and potential then is hard to resist. Furthermore, Button showed well against well-regarded teammates, and his maturing had impressed many. Lastly, Button would have a year to learn how to lead a team, and if the improvement trend continues, Button would really grow to be a good driver. Many people tend to forget that Button is actually one of the younger drivers around at 24 and has a long time to bid for success.
Fisi is slightly a better driver than Button now perhaps, but age isn't on his side.
Webber is another equally brilliant choice, but Button's English and seemingly more "promotable".
