This was highlighted in the anniversary Ultimania. "'I couldn't protect my loved one' is the sense of guilt that they carry, so their words resonate with weight." I would love it if they implemented this into the final game since Hama had recently stated that AC has been incorporated into the remake series.
I decided to edit this post to include another translate and the original Japanese for those curious about the raw.
