Makes senses to ask for a pilot to come help, there are a lot of switches and stuff for one guy to handle by himself.
Probably needed someone to handle the radio while he flew.

What you say is true. Another angle is that , as was just demonstrated, you never know when the current pilot is going to drop off.
A cessna pilot in a boeing is better than no pilot in a boeing. So keep the small plane pilot on deck.
Smart move bringing him up front.
