It's a device that can be used to facilitate doing something. Like synchromesh facilitates engaging gears (here is your "what does it have to do with"). Like power windows facilitate operating windows. Like ECU, among other things, allows to start a cold engine without manually setting fuel enrichment lever (yes, I remember those).


You call it a crutch, but it is here not to address a disability, it also does not interfere with vehicle operation. So I choose to call it progress.
