Coaching in poker is so totally different than coaching in other sports that it would be akin to someone's bowling coach throwing the ball for them during a tournament.

This is the opposite of correct. Coaching or giving advise in a tournament is more like the bowling coach saying, "If you throw the ball with more spin, you will hit more strikes" and is equally unlikely to influence the outcome of the game beyond the player's actual skill level.

The difference is, in bowling or other sports, there's a physical aspect that the coach can't perform. If the coaching involves giving advice while a hand is still playing out, that is very different from other forms of coaching. This is pretty obvious isn't it?
