New front door, need to pick stain color ASAP

Here is the house (ignore the lack of landscaping):

Here is my new front door. I have a sample of the hardwood flooring propped up against it (and a neighborhood cat helping me make my decision).

The door hardware will be oil rubbed bronze. The porch "floor" will be painted, so ignore the redish grey tone please.

My painter thinks we should just do a clear coat and keep it that color. My trim guys say people either match the hardwood floor or go DARKER.

This is a close up of the floor:

Help! I am stuck and I need to decide very soon. I am also unsure if I should paint the inside of the door trim color, or match it to the outside. Here is the foyer in progress (wood wainscoting is not finished yet, floors not stained yet....etc).

Any advise would be amazing! Than you!
