This here is probably closest to how I felt.

From the start Songbird shows that she/NUSA could maybe cure you. Being able to mute Jhonny shows some mastery over the tech. Meyers and Reed say they could do the same but I figured they were talking out of their ass. Neither was a tech expert and nobody else so far has said it was possible, they just wanted me to get on board for whatever. The moment Songbird tied the cure to the same thing that cures her significantly different ailment I instantly flipped from 'cure probably doesn't exist' to 'There was never a cure on the table'.

The two agents never really gave me a good reason to trust them. Always withholding information about the plan just to get me to go along with it. I doubted the mission was as off the books as their claimed. They way I was seeing it I would just be a loose end at the end of it all. If it all worked and they couldn't cure me I would be a very angry and very informed individual. I figured Reed would put a bullet in my head at the first opportunity once we had Songbird. Hell, I wouldn't have been surprised if the virus that I was supposed to upload to Songbird incapacitated me as well. Then he could just flatline me as he scooped up Songbird.

At least with Songbird I expected her involvement with V would probably end after the GTFO stage of her plan. Either way V is going to be considered a liability to the NUSA. Best option is to probably delta out of the whole situation as soon as you hear about the Blackwall being involved and hope Reed gets himself killed trying to extract Songbird. Since that isn't exactly an option in the scope of the game I decided to betray Reed before Reed/NUSA could betray me.
