Except that I would say that an interlinear is not even a crutch.  I was going to say that it is a wheel chair, but even that isn't correct.  It's a litter.  You never learn to move yourself but are carried everywhere.

Everyone has one's own opinion. (It may not be 100% right; it may
change in time.)
All I can say is that, though everything is not useful everyone,
anything may be useful for someone who gets benefit out of it.  A
crutch does not cripple the one who needs it.   Not all can be
scholars; when you are a scholar, you would not need a crutch.  But
there are those who need a crutch as a clutch.
