I don’t know exactly, but I think it is made illegal mostly in order to clarify circumstances:
Police has a clear reason to get involved (not just a general “maybe somebody should help this person”), people who “help” with committing suicide are also doing this illegally (no need to start a discussion first) etc.

Even then, in the US, police have no duty to protect an individual.
The police have a general “public duty”, apparently to protect capital.
