Isn't the shortcut open after you meet him from Izalith side anyways? Pretty sure mine was. Thus unless you are using it to save Solaire... the humanity giving option is relatively a waste.

NG first playthrough I saved him using poison mist at the shortcut door. And later came around the Izalith side and talked with him and picked up the dead Chaos bug helmet. And opened shortcut from Izalith side no problem, and later farmed Demon Titanite.

NG+ I used the 30 humanity route to simply bypass the centipede long haul route.
