"We are far more skilled," he is saying, "than any human at this task. We learn to climb from the moment we leave our nests, and we weight far less than you do."
Unless I have some strong reason to suspect funny business, in which case I'll scan to see if the rock and rope are in good sight and I've got any bowmen amongst the legionnaires first, this isn't an invasion bridgehead so unless the area's full of rebels or brigands or I really distrust kobolds I'm not likely to line the gorge with bowmen. I generally build cynical characters with accidental metagaming in mind, so if my character would find it really weird the kobold was offering to risk a climb for no apparent reason I think he'd react with due paranoia, if on the other hand this just strikes him as the kobold equivalent of macho-ism or trying to squeeze out some hazard pay I wouldn't. Regardless there's no obvious reason to decline, unless there's some obvious in-character reason to decline, and if there's not, I'll nod my head respectfully at the kobold and wish him good luck.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
