I consider "assistance" to be real time information about Freqs/Calls/Mults 
which I didn't personally develop in the course of operating.

None of those aids provide you with any information, and do not fit the 
definition of assistance.

Operating aids that would help me make more qsos....

A dog walker
Someone who would prepare dinner and bring it to me
Servant to bring coffee / tea whenever
A shack washroom
A working telephone screening system , especially against telemarketeers
A time machine to make younger
etc etc
