Good writers don't have their characters say useless stuff specially when panel time is limited.
And since Duggan has said he had plans for Bobby eventually (I believe he said this early on in the Marauders run) then maybe this is the start of that especially considering Bobby was the hero here.
Maybe Conan is wrong about the details but this should lead to something. Maybe Bobby is only part something non-human and this contributed to his Omega level. Unless Duggan's golden days are behind and now he has useless dialogue.
