As a native french speaker, I would argue that the correct
translation is "better". Indeed, although "le mieux"
can mean "the best", in this sense it is used to mean
"improvement".

Of course the proper thing to do in English is just to quote
Shakespeare:

"Striving to better, oft we mar what's well."
