^ Unfortunately, within the constraints of their organization.....Houji and Akira really don't have the power to offer him that. I imagine that standing orders for the operation are Extermination, with no permission granted for taking prisoners.

I mean, the CCG is not exactly kind when it comes to offering second chances. Juuzou is human, and it took Shinohara personally fighting for him every step of the way for him to even be given a chance. It took Arima and V having a personal interest in him to secure Kaneki any chance, and even then he was living on a tight leash for a while. Someone like Takizawa, that has actively worked as an enemy agent, wouldn't be welcomed into the organization. I don't think Houji or Akira have the authority to secure him mercy.

In a kinder world, Takizawa would be recognized as someone like Juuzou that is a victim and just needs to be given a chance. But there's not a lot people can do for him, given the current situation.
