Exactly.  I don't understand why people think it's fair that a true 
single-station, single-operator should be competing against what amounts to
a multi-station team.  To me, having a buddy hold your frequency is no 
different than getting your buddy to help you out by spotting you frequently, 
or tune up a lot on top of anyone who gets too close to your frequency or 
whose score is too getting too high, or getting your buddy to find and asking 
(or tricking) rare mults into QSYing to your frequency to work you, etc.
