Gotta be honest it seems pointless to me having an assist system when it's not a tag game. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with MK1 coming out relatively quickly after MK11, as if to catch the anniversary, and they didn't have time to make these extras fully playable.
Even the presentation is less cinematic in the intros, fatalities, and victory animations - all accounting for the assist character, like a tag fighting game would.
