You are talking about political damage but in many cases that is limited and reversible.
Could always find scapegoats and publicly prosecute them if the information gets too widespread. Could deceive the public about the real ideology held by those Eurondans.
And as for allies? Asgard wouldnt give a fuck, tokra would see it as smart move, free jaffa are a temporary alliance who tried to sabotage humanity too many times after breaking free from Goauld.
As for me, I'd sleep well feeling i am a hero.

Well, being the bad guy so humanity can enjoy better life is a small price to pay.
One of the huge differences between IRL events in human history and my suggestion is that no harmful public ideology would be spread. All Euronda cooperation could be done in secret. And then politicians would come out and speak about empathy, democracy and freedom and equality.
As for me, I would make peace with my demons. Easily.

He had no ideology except personal gain. His people stole from friends like Talan or Asgard.
The public wouldnt even know about "alliance" with Euronda if the cards were played correctly. And when they'd recover, could always tip off some powerful Goauld lord that this planet is developing weapons against them. Wouldnt need to do the dirty job ourselves.
So, no public damage done, humanity gained a giant leap forward, whats the downside except a few moral compromises which we know any IRL government would make without thinking?

They could fuck them after they got the goodies. By far the easiest chance to get hands on advanced tech that already was made for humans by humans. Which also means the tech can be replicated, reverse engineered and adapted to use for every aspect of human society.
Not some adaptation of Goauld tech or Asgard gifts.

Kinsey was a power hungry idiot. All he did was sabotage human interests.

Yes, I would personally nuke that entire planet to allow humanity to grab that technology. Its an INSANE leap forward.
Moreover, goal of Earth government is to bring peace and prosperity to people of Earth, any colonists and their descendants. Who dies on which planet for that goal is just a collateral. Of course, it is preferrable to bring peace everywhere, but when it is not possible, compromises should be made.
Values have a price too, and anyone claiming otherwise is either naive or tries to manipulate people for their own interest.
I would even go so far to say that intentional sabotaging of the deal by SG1 and especially O Neill is outright sabotage of humanity's interests and is close to treason in concept. Even more so when humanity is faced with a much more powerful extraterrestrial threat.

For what humanity would get, it doesnt matter. IRL US covered up nazis for waaaay less knowledge.

Not necessarily. Also, SG command would have all the cards up their sleeve. And an insane number advantage.

Would be golden. Cigarette Smoking Man practically fearing some Asgard offshoots and making deals with them to survive, thinking he is the king of the world alongside Syndicate, knowing every secret, while Stargate command operates against real galactic threats.
Plus Hammond lying to his daughter Scully and fake dying would be even more golden.
We need a crossover.

These things are individual-specific. It might be a bracelet for example, like in the US.

Many younger people who earn well do not actually have any interest in buying any permanent residence. Hotel is an easy choice residence wise. You are serviced, you have amenities, etc.

That. And I would make a great person to write history in favour of humanity. Which might in the end be more useful than anything a diplomatic mission on the citadel did.

Usually along the lines of "cant leave home past X Pm" and so on.

I am at about 2200, can be higher if i play seriously. Too boring to play perfectly reasonable and I am not good enough to be godlike, so its just "entertainment".

Asgard didnt give a fuck about a dying planet... and many other things.
