Neither cheating nor helpful.

As for cheating, it seems like the best an odds calculator could do is allow you to make the statistically correct choice at any point

It won't even allow you to do that.
Beginning players think only about the cards in their hands, and that's why they think odds calculators are extremely helpful: "I'm going to have a 19% chance to hit my draw and win this."
You need to think about what your opponent has, and an odds calculator isn't going to help with that.

eh what?
Of course an odds calculator will help you. You need to know the odds your getting so you can make a correct call. Just because 99% of other micro players dont care about it doesnt means not important or helpful.
