The good thing about the conversation - it distracted Anakin from entering the atmosphere and general piloting. The fact there wasn't a wrestling match for who got the controls. Well.

Anakin would say it's because his twin can't fly at home. In reality he just didn't know if he could make himself pilot the course.

"Are you sure? I know it's going to be different for you than me. And there are complications to both of us." He honestly wanted to go, which surprised him. But he'd be there with someone who understood what he was feeling.
