Obviously, she also doesn't want Nunotaba to get caught up in more conflict than necessary. It's just the kind of person she is.
A much better way of showing Shinobu that she made the right choice in trusting Misaka would be for her to beat up the bad guy and solve everythig right there. And what do you mean not get her caught up in conflict? There wouldn't have been a conflict. Misaka would have destroyed that guy in half a second. A level 5 vs an unarmed level 0 (a normal level 0 not like Touma) can only have one ending. Not to mention that Febri's life > Shinobu's feelings.

I'll say this: Most of you are overestimating a person's capacity to act in such a situation. I doubt any one of us could have done better than Mikoto.
I'm not claiming I could have. But Mikoto certainly could have. She's not some damsel in distress and this isn't her first tense situation. She could easily have thought this through, and she only didn't because of poor writing.
