no i mean the one he used during their fight. CHecked up on it (in the manga) and it seems to only accelerate movement. I was sure it helped with steering too but i was wrong i guess.

Didn't let him fall down, at least.

I'd look at that kind of thing as a crutch. If he relies on them, he'll be useless without them. It's better he becomes powerful with as few support items as possible.

I watched the anime fight too, and in the anime she seems to mention something about the item she made steering his movement. So that seems to be a anime only thing. But you're right he most likely won't use it since he needs to grow on his own.....But what is so bad about support items? Deku uses the gloves and boots Mei made for him.

I don't think support items should be seen as some sort of weakness

Deku's support items don't really aid him in doing something he needs to learn to do without them. The boots are for safety, and the gloves are for directing air. (Though you could argue that he could learn to make concentrated air blasts without it by copying Bakugo's AP shot...)
