what is the inner meaning of the lines "though as for that the passing there had worn them really about the same " from the poem "the road not taken" ?

Dear student,
"as for that" indicates the path which is usually not chosen by people. The poet seems to come to a conclusion about his discretion about the paths in the starting part of the poem when he claims "because it was grassy and wanted wear". But in these lines the dwindling nature of the poet is brought forth as he seems to be uncertain of his choice as both the paths seem worn out in appearance. He equates both the roads,probably in order to convince himself to chose the other road easily.
Hope this answer is useful to you.
Regards
