I think we definitely should confront her, for several reasons.
1. She needs to know that her actions have consequences
Alice needs to realize the bad thing she did not go unobserved, and that similar actions in the future will also not be overlooked. Alice is spoiled, we need to be a source of authority for her, as we are sortof the only ones that can.
2. We need to break the cycle
Someone mentioned this before I think, so Im kinda borrowing from them, but its true. This situation has happened thousands of times, and it never turns out well. We need to do something to disrupt events, make things go a different way than normal.
3.Our current path is boring.
ok, we've been given possibly the most direct way to affect the story in any work ever, and all we've done with the opportunity is to give various exposition dumps. We need to do something interesting! Let "the outsiders" be their (are?) own character, with goals and feelings beyond a sort of vague cheeriness. I know plenty of people were upset about the reveal of Alice's actions, so let it show!
So therefore, to Alice, next time we're out of this art-style that sort of ambiguously changes the ways in which we have control over the comic:
"Are you happy with the choices you have made?"
This whole situation sure shook up the whole fanbase, this must be dealt with delicately, I believe that confronting alice too soon will have negative consecuences, either derrick finds out and he snaps, lucia finds out and tries to kill alice, or alice will start ignoring our commands completely.
I believe patience is key, we'll get a chance to show alice the full weight of the consecuences of her sins soon.
Also, I think convincing this particular alice that what she did was wrong is gonna be hard as hell, it took daydream around 8,799 or so construct iterations for her to finally stop raping derrick, and this is alice right after the crime.
