Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker proposes walking around an obstacle and dismisses the possibility that it is very large. The reassurance rests on an assumption about its scale. Read as comic confidence, the line makes a potentially difficult problem sound simple without showing whether that confidence is justified.
