despite the name, help is closer to our "default" or "neutral" intent. you can do most things on help intent and imo that is good.

not having to worry so much about what intent you're on makes us more accessible. we've generally leaned away from making things rely too much on them

edit: also, your poll responses seem pretty loaded. compare the reasonable "Yes!" to the hysterical "Don't did this please god!"
