Doesn't always help, since defenders may forget the explanation 4 tricks in, and are indeed entitled to ask again at that point.

As for giving partner UI, for me, if I'm asking, it's because I have some difficult decision that depends on the answer, and, to figure out that my decision depends on the answer, I'll have already tanked for long enough to give partner UI just from that.

The UI is unavoidable, if your partner is ethical it will not create a problem.
edit; it creates a problem of course, for your partner. Your partner may be forced to choose a play that was not suggested by the UI.
