So at the moment is there any reason for us not to pick up Aatrox? if we do pick him up we lose 3-4 favor and if we get him we get tons of benefits. And if we do pick him up we get all sorts of benefits, and a stronger military makes us look cool in front of the other factions.

I believe that The Plan is to grab him at this point. We've rebuilt our armies, gave the gauntlet to Mordenkaiser, and are ready to wreck faces.

We have no reason not to grab him. He gives us a solid military boost that further empowers our already more aggressive style of combat (Fight And Win, or Fight and Die, our units are incapable of Fleeing) a strong top laner/sustain jungler, and Favor is useless to us at this point in the arc (literally useless, we don't need to petition for Champions and anything else is less relevant in the long run because we have Kalista)

For starters, there is really no harm done to us if we pick up Aatrox. We have no favor, and now that champion pickups are unrelated to favor the hit that the favor loss would cause is laughable.

Then comes your point of working with Bilge. While working with them does help us quite a bit, we shouldn't be relying on them for everything. Remember, anytime you accept assistance from another faction you have to share the prize with them (not always a 50/50 split, but we still don't get the full prize).

On Neritum, we didn't have vote to agree to Bilge's help. In this case, I think it was because there were no rewards that were sharable; All we gained was the Gauntlet, and its not something that can be split and still retain any value.

In the current lore event, and future events, working with Bilge would result in sharing the prizes. While this could easily be worth it depending on the situation, we don't want to be in a position where we absolutely have to take their help and give up our rewards.

Actually, Bilgewater did take a reward from Neritum. They snagged 3 of the 10 military strength that Nyroth had (in naval strength). So instead of gaining +10 military, the SI gained +7
