Betnz, since you've shown concern for accuracy, the editor in me will
have to point out that you've got the definition backwards. If Pierce is
receiving a benefit, then he's the beneficiary. The person who provides
a benefit is the benefactor.
In any case, your point is well taken that Pierce benefits from Walker's
presence, and, as Mister Ghost pointed out, vice versa. After all, it is
a team game.
