I was trying to explain a situation where a person hand propping could
possible get into a situation where someone may take a second look at
you because you did something stupid. So you use a non-certificated
person to help and something goes wrong who is the pilot in command?

No pilot-in-command is required in order to start (handprop) an airplane
engine. Mechanics do it all the time and have never seen a Pilot PTS.
