So yeah-- you're ignoring the part of the definition that comes before the semicolon for shameless. And zeroing in on one word in that definition (modesty). I think you're playing semantician, and you're not playing particularly well. I don't think very many people would agree that Amit should feel shame for what he's doing.
Question for you: Do you think he should feel shame for what he's done? If you broke your leg alone in the woods, would you cry out for help?
modesty: 1. having or showing a moderate or humble estimate of one's merits, importance, etc.;
