Helpers keep everything following the rules. You don't have to figure out what 
the ID should be or what the field name should be, the helper makes it all 
perfectly uniform and keeps it what the controller expects. 

As far as I know, there is no penalty for this, except maybe at application 
start time, when all of these view helpers are compiled and concatenated once 
and for all.
