I believe that it may not "just be a help", it may be a large contributing factor. Perhaps less likely with an experienced pair, they know what to do in spite of poor conditions. So often, the time, work, and expense involved in "fixing" a problem, would have been saved if a little time had been spent to create good working conditions for the horses to start with. Been there, done that, sure wish I "knew it all"! I don't really think it is possible to know it all, though there are those that are way closer to that goal than I will probably ever be.
