The important thing is he would have no obligation to do so morally, ethically, socially, or legally.

He might have no 'obligation' to do so, but he might feel that he should anyway. That's the point...that you don't seem to understand. Even if he's doing it to make him feel good about himself deep down, he's still helping you in the process because helping people is what motivates him to feel good about himself.
I say that's a nicer person to know, and probably a better person to know than the person who is motivated purely by helping themselves.
