[ The reply is simple because she does not doubt his ability to eliminate the options and arrive at the reality that it would be Rey's responsibility. Because of her actions here, Rey has—however unintentionally—assured that what becomes of Kylo Ren will ultimately be her responsibility in all arenas.
That burden weighed in the way that Finn's first question after they'd warmly reunited with hugs and relieved, laughing tears, was suspicious interrogation on why she had not killed the unconscious Knight of Ren when she had the chance. He would have, he'd told her, and it's what Ren would have done to her. Poe's reaction was more understanding, expressing diplomacy that Finn did not possess, but the expectation and subsequent confusion still lingered. Poe had not forgotten his own run-in with Kylo's Force telepathy, and would not any time soon.
The guilt that flooded her in answer to their barrage of expectations did not erode her certainty of purpose, and though she could not adequately explain to them, who did not feel the Force as she did, who had never glanced into him to feel wracked with that fear, suffering, and isolation, she did not relent her position.
No. This was not Finn or Poe's matter to decide, regardless of how close they were to the matter as well. It was not Leia's or even Luke's journey anymore: it was hers. And she would be the one to decide what became of it. She would be the one to take the burden of searching his mind and attempt to scare away the darkness, to see for herself if it could be done or not.
And if it finds that she cannot, she knows what her responsibility will be then. What she must do, a step she has been too afraid to take, knowing that it grants the dark a foothold in her own mind. ]
