I guess if out honest Ned lied about killing Dayne for an unknown reason yet revealed, then it could ne the same for Hightower?

He didn't lie about killing him. He clearly did. Even in the books he acknowledges he wouldn't have been able to do the deed WITHOUT Howland Reed. Perhaps Noble Ned was both giving credit to Reed and protecting his honor by never bringing up how he stabbed a Kingsguard in the back with a dagger?
