One of Ororo's defining traits is her respect for all life. This has been tested in Luceti time and again in many ways, but never on this scale. She does not support the use of this Shift Bomb and in her eyes it's unforgivable to even think about using it against anyone, cultist or not. Really, if this were an ideal situation, Ororo would have volunteered to personally lead some kind of covert taskforce to sabotage the actual Shift Bomb.
But the fact of the matter is that they don't have any experts on that kind of technology, and seeking to mess with it would just be foolishness. She is not about to help the Malnosso either, because they have never done any of them any favors and are, at heart, still their captors (and she is not sure that telling them about such a bomb would not equate to them reverse engineering one of their own - and who knows what they would do with that kind of firepower?) Ororo sees the bomb is as an inevitability at this point, no matter what they choose. That it exists in tangible form at all is already a concern, moreso because it is in the hands of people who, apart from Bil, have not had cause to be friendly with Luceti. Choosing not to do anything (as in option two) is, for her, as good as voting against them, and that will only sour relations even more - who is to say what that could mean for everyone in the long run?
Ororo will be going with the option of helping the Iron Eye on the basis that if they do not (she counts option two as a vote against the Iron Eye), they give the Iron Eye more reason to not do them any favors, except this time they have the weapons that make them a more serious threat than they already are. This is already a no-win scenario as far as Ororo is concerned, but rather than sit idly by and choose an option that gives them no benefits, she will choose one that, to her, will serve them better in the long run.
