When making a request to someone that requires them to get out of the way to do it, would saying something like "if it's on your way then could you _______?" and then adding "otherwise it's fine" be over-supplicating, or is this just being considerate and respectful?

I realize that this is a super-specific situation, but I've always wondered if adding things like "otherwise it's fine" or "no worries", even in person-to-person speech, if it gives off a lack of assertiveness. I tend to like being compassionate towards others out of consideration, but I'd like to know the fine line between kindness and then being too accommodating.
