I find this particular reason unconvincing. Sure, Seamus didn't 
believe Harry in OotP, but Ron didn't believe him in GoF. Therefore 
it's not that he hasn't the same flaw. And look how often Ron 
prejudges people just because he didn't like them. I love Ron, but I 
think if jumping to conclusions without full posession of the facts 
is a reason why Seamus didn't get the badge, than Ron doesn't deserve 
it either.

I think Ron was make prefect because he proved himself countless of 
times. It were not Dean and Seamus who risked their lives to stop 
evil on a regular basis in the first three, and who loyalli fought at 
Harry's side.
