In these situations, I like to use a trinity of Faith, Logic and Heart to help decide.
Faith: None of these actions are more or less heretical. In such cases, to be faithful is to be devoted, to be devoted is to be logical. Defer to logic.
Logic: Logic dictates of the choices with limited time, it would be wise to help our young Navigators. Not only because we plan to travel at haste and meet up with forge worlds (thus by accelerating our travels we buy more time for us to do more things) but to ignore them is not only to be less likely to endear them to us, it also risks them becoming less effective with long term exposure to our Null fields. More importantly, by showing aid to our Navigators, we also proof we are not so fanatical to be an enemy of the Navigator Guilds, although we invest in Anti-Psyker tech we acknowledge there are some psykers given value by the Machine God. For now anyway, privately we likely share the Emperors ideal of weaning mankind away from the need for psykers but that's neither here nor now
And as anon mentions, if we do that oursevles now, we will be more easily in control of preventing its tampering and turning against us.
The only slight drawback of this is we aren't actually in connection with the Telepathica or Psykana ordos on Mars, but eh, Talos is smart so he can probably make do.
Heart: Upgrading isn't just a Talos action, it's also an UZI action. We get to give her some beautiful eyes. Maybe we can even chide her by giving them big beautiful lenses so she can easily do both microscopic circuitry and biology as easily as seeing the wings on a fly 10 miles away through the rain, as well as every ocular spectrum we can give her.
And its not every day we get to do UZI actions. Gotta grind those UZI points
2/3 indicators lean towards helping our psykers. But damn, I don't wanna miss an UZI moment.
