Not sure if you want to go with the 'better parent' argument. But if both are good parents, and have been fully involved while together, then the principle of maximizing both parents' roles should be followed. And if mum has taken actions to reduce dad's involvement (while at the same time acknowledging dad as a good parent) then the power should be given to dad since that is more likely to result in a full 2 parent situation for the child.
