    Humidity while not in shed should be between 50-60, during shed should be closer to 70. You said 95/80.. I'm going to assume you mean that you have the warm side surface at 95 (belly heat) and the ambient at 80? Sounds pretty close to what the caresheet HERE says, though I prefer having my hot spot closer to 92 on top of the substrate in case the snake gets under the paper towels, and my ambient temp closer to 84.
    As for the hiding, there's no problem there. It has been said that "a hiding BP is a happy BP". Sometimes I don't see mine for a week at a time. Mine typically remain in their hides even at night and then become active closer to feeding. If you're worried about him, lift up the hide and check on him.. you shouldn't have to worry about "bothering him" during the day unless you're taking him out of his hide every day and handling him.

    I'm no expert, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but hopefully this helps. Anyone else can correct me.
