In my experience, most CPLs want to go to the RHS of an airliner. And everything they do is with this goal in mind.
Without HELP funding, who will become a pilot? That’s an easy one to answer - it will be those with wealthy parents. You need proof - drop into the crew room of any airline in the western world and you will find that the vast majority of occupants are white middle class males. This needs to change, and schemes like the QF scheme, with HELP support can go a large way towards achieving this.
