In light of the new Fall of Cadia release I have modified my Sisters of Battle list and am looking for critique. One big question I have is wether losing the Objective Secured rule from the standard CAD is worth the Vestal Task Force bonus ability.

Currently there's going to be an issue with your Repressors. At least if you take the Vestal force from the IA book.

"A repressor is a Dedicated Transport choice for a Codex: Sisters of Battle army."

Updated in the FAQ to read:
Codex: Adepta Sororitas References in Imperial Armour Volume Two: Second Edition to ‘Codex: Sisters of Battle’ should be read as Codex: Adepta Sororitas’.

So if you take the Vestal Strike Force, then you aren't playing out of Codex: AS.

That said, you CAN put Veridyan and new Celestine as legal choices for Codex; AS. So that's probably your best option.

Have you considered leaving the Repressors behind and swapping to the Castellan formation? That would make your sisters and whatever transport you give them able to recycle on a 5+, and if you splash in coteaz everything is obsec.
