Diversion to a LVP alternate

Hi guys,

chatting with some colleagues, we came up with a discussion about diverting to an alternate which is in LVP conditions above your minimums (It just started to be LVPs, from 5000mt down to 2000mt and then RVR around 500mt, CAT IIIA available, CAT IIIA aircraft, no MELs, Fuel extra 20 mins on top of FIN RES once at the alternate) considering that it's the best Commercial alternate for that destination, while the second option is not in LVPs, slightly further away, still with 10-15 mins holding on top of FIN RES at the alternate.
Different opinions arose so I'd like to know what do you think about this without conditioning the answers with what they said
