Well, yes but the P3 can also be considered a crutch too. It all depends on
where the crutch/aid line is placed.
1st split capable RX-TX was Heath SB300-SB400 pair.
Confession time... Have but after initial fascination with it do not use CW
Skimmer but rely a lot on the P3. Is having the K3 sub receiver and listening
on the DX's frequency and hunting for his reply frequencies on the sub a crutch
too? Sure is not the old timers way.

around and listen closely, but keep an eye on the P3 display. Love that thing!
