The way I see it, the two adults she trusts on a tactical decision about the effectiveness of an untested gun are Datu, so... a maintenance guy who barely knows how to shoot, and Glenn... a 65+ old man with a limp. You can trust Michael suggestions on military organization and Glenn's suggestions on how to set up a radio network, but not the other way around.
Also, if you take command you better believe you are responsible for, well, your decisions:
"Let's see: the gun truck is unavailable, this "matagun" here is untested, there's only a rookie available for escort, these two are extremely valuable, is going to be raining so while it rains we have water and when it stops we can go out safely to finish the work on the mill... let's send them now then."
And then she ate her shoe.
