    That assumes that the person was going to die regardless, while in reality lots of people can and do get the support that they need.

    Lots, but not the majority. Most people simply have to live in misery, because help is usually paywalled, or delayed badly by funding cuts to public health. Restricting the means to commit suicide without also making help fully accessible to everyone that needs it, and available when they need it, increases suffering.
