I don't think he knows you're not a Trusted User.

If anyone who wasn't a "problem user" was allowed to award the category, then that would create several problems. New users who have only made a few edits to the wiki could reward it to themselves and other new users.

The point of the Trusted User category is to designate users who have contributed significantly to the wiki by contributing in things such as page cleanup, not any user who hasn't gotten into a tussle with the admins.
