Because he does recognize the feeling, that's where this statement comes from. Inigo has definitely felt it before. That fear, the sheer terror of diving right into something. There have been so many battles where he knew he was outmatched, or that even his entire group of friends was outmatched.
But they always jumped in anyway. Because they had no choice. Either they fought, or they just gave up, and that was not an option if they wanted to save anything in their world.
But fighting for the sake of something else - like the world - is easy. Doing something for himself, especially when it's scary?
It's like a mountain Inigo can't climb over. Even though all he'd have to do is something as simple and dumb as getting up on his feet and starting to move again, it feels insurmountable.
"I could just.. go." Inigo's gaze slips off to the side as he says it, like he's trying to spot a way out of this crowd of people. Like he's already imagining himself doing it in this moment.
