It’s like the South Park episode where the town found out that the reason Jarred lost so much weight while eating fresh at Subway was because he had AIDS.

Although the nouns aid and aide both have among their meanings “an assisting person,” the spelling aide is increasingly used for the sense “helper, assistant”.
Hope this helps !
