Basically, what I'm asking is whether or not it is OK to interrupt your own davening to show the person next to you what's going on. On occassion, I have sat next to people who have obviously been to very few services before. If you don't help the other person, he may feel completely alienated from the service, and may not return again. My instinct is that teaching someone else how to daven is more important than your own prayers, even if it means interrupting yourself during a part of the service. I can obtain all these things with hardly a passing thought for the clever people who made them possible and the hardworking people who made them cheap.
