It seems to me that the Cypherites were the only logical choice. Mervs are out the door instantly, regular Machine bureaucrats would be too busy fumbling over paperwork and stroking their own egos about how "super efficient" they are to be effective. Zion and EPN, in the end, would never prioritize Sati as much as someone who is an advocate for the continued existence of the Matrix because in the end - she's just another program to them. Who is to say that Zion and EPN wouldn't use her as some means to disrupt the simulation's stability, and cause mass awakenings?
In the end, Sati is an integral part of the bluepill dream. Since we aim to preserve stability at any cost, it's only natural to assume that we would treat the protection of Sati like any other mission. We'll protect Sati through any means necessary.

well said Marias, but I wonder if the oracle didn´t have some other reason for entrusting these valuable items to the cyph?...we´ll have to wait and see.

I disagree, actually. ( >.> )
Many believe that Sati's real purpose transcends the boundaries of the Matrix, that there may be something to her that helps us collectively in the real world. E Pluribus Neo and most of Zion are willing to follow the word of the Oracle to the end of their lives. After all, Zion's continued existence is in part, due to her words and guidance. In all seriousness, they owe her the favor regardless of the war.
Though I'll agree it's common knowledge that the Oracle and Merovingian won't mix, the Machines and the Machinists are probably the most capable of keeping an exile like this safe within the system. They "guard all the doors and hold all the keys".
The Cypherite need for a purpose and it's supposed change in mindset once the lie of reinsertion was revealed doesn't negate the fact that Toorima is a psychotic killer. (But this whole thing might be some justification to the org, as we as a community insisted on it's continued existence.)
There isn't an obvious reason for this choice. There's something else at play here that no one else is capable of seeing, except maybe the Architect or the Merovingian, and even that is questionable at best.
Fragment hmm? I trust the other Cypherites will look after this fragment and decrypt it soon. Watch over Sati? As in the Oracle won't be able to do it herself? If something happens to her before I get to meet her for the first time I will beat whoever harms her to bits and fragments...And why can't Seraph watch her? Not that I mind the Cypherites being assigned such an important task....
