Unhappy Passenger rights vs safety

In light of recent BA incident (electrical power loss after departure and continuation of flight to destination), and this is a question for pilots here - would you comply to directive from company to continue after an incident like this, or would you rather land, despite bringing extra cost to the airline?

I would rather see that you bring the plane down, and that your company gives me a glass of drink or even lunch and delay me for 10 hours, than to put me on aircraft which is not so OK.

When I started flying 20 years ago, I was tought, that aircraft is servicable when all systems are nominal, not just the essential ones.
