Either Vriska dies, or everyone dies - and this isn't baseless speculation, either. It's coming from a Seer.
Terezi essentially has no choice but to act. When she declares that personal feelings 'don't matter' to a legislacerator, it's not supposed to be a boast - quite the opposite, in fact. It's something she's saying to herself, in an attempt to suppress her reluctance to kill Vriska.

Terezi is completely backed into a corner, here. She's twisting herself in a circle, desperately trying to find any excuse not to kill her frenemy...
...and it's not the first time, either.
The universe just keeps forcing these girls into impossible situations, where they feel like they have to make each other pay. Talk about star-crossed haters!

I also think Terezi's getting a little less ok with murder in general.
When Green Dave succumbed to his inevitable doom, her cheerful veneer was temporarily shattered. Against her better judgement, Terezi Pyrope is actually starting to value a life.
...and, just as she's discovering this about herself, she also learns that Vriska needs to die, for the good of the Veil. How unlucky do you have to be, to have both of those realizations simultaneously?

This epiphany is probably a lot more common than you'd think.
I firmly believe that trolls aren't murderous by nature. They're just taught to be, by the Empire that shapes their lives. This is why contact with humanity is fucking them up so badly - it's the first time they've been confronted with the idea that life has value. They're learning about a world where they'd be considered evil for what they do.
I feel genuinely bad for Terezi, here. She's beginning to realize, with dawning horror, that what she was doing was wrong.
Tra i trattori che arano la terra e i cavalli che la attraversano, si sente ancora il respiro antico dell’uomo e della natura.
