"I'd rather not have to dig us out," Ilphyl noted. "If we pull back, are you going to do a fighting retreat or just get out?" There was no judgement there -- if Donnie was in charge of the big guns, then he might not be trained in narrow tunnels. "Or I think there are others setting explosives to slow pursuit."
Which... cave ins were terrifying, but hopefully the first detonation would cause the Empire's soldiers to be sensible and move slowly to disarm them, rather than keep charging forward. Ilphyl doesn't trust the Empire's leadership won't just orders soldiers forward anyway, and accept the casualties.
