Somehow my session expired after I had loaded the page, nonetheless when I clicked on the help icons I was greeted with a very unhelpful error message:
ERROR: Failed to load help file: Forbidden
Instead this should say: "Failed to load help file, please log in"

It's a pretty old issue. The same applies to widgets like build queue and slave status and also to other dynamic content (e.g. progressive logs). I feel Jenkins should do a better analysis of expired sessions and then return a special error code for such case. It's pretty trivial to implement if one knows Jetty codebase
