I don’t think that aspect of the film is actually relevant to the central themes or story, though.

The terrorist attack is more of a plot device to break the isolation of the Conclave, and thus to bring the cardinals back from the temptation of power and to remind them of the greater world and the people they are ultimately in service to, as well as to setup the final confrontation between Tedesco and Benitez.
