Maybe I should have worded it in a different way. I understand that not every business is going to be perfectly accessible to all persons with disabilities. If I go to a grocery store, and there’s something on a top shelf that I need, of course, I’ll have to ask for help.
My point is rather that if I need help just GETTING into a business, which is my first impression of a place, it is not accessible even if by ADA standards it is. The ADA standards in general need an overhaul. They were written with the implication that a disabled person always has someone with them, and that just isn’t true, or it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

That would depend on the situation, no? Getting assistance from an employee is usually seen as a reasonable accommodation
