The only one I could think of that could be used as a "crutch" would be the sustain pedal, which lifts the dampers off the strings so they continue ringing out even when the key is released. This might make your playing seem smoother if you're not good and holding notes, but it'll probably just make things sound washed out.
But it's absolutely necessary for some pieces. I don't think I've ever heard a recording of Beethoven's piano sonata No. 14, AKA "Moonlight" that didn't use the sustain pedal throughout.
I guess you could use the soft pedal to "cheat" if you have uncontrollable meat hands and can't play quietly when it's called for.
