You can probably leave that open and make your decision after you arrivr in Paris (18 or 19 May).

Personally, I would opt for another day in Paris: I love Paris in the springtime. But I might have an advantage over you: I speak French!

London would be my choice — and I’m fairly fluent in French, love French food, and dearly love other parts of France. However, you really need at least one more day in Paris, London and Edinburgh.

London, You are going to have a long trip back home and if you can remove a leg of the journey the easier it will be. i’ve done it both ways coming home to phoenix and found it much easier to fly from london. All the cities you are visiting are fantastic and all deserve more time.
