HR's unofficial organisational role - true. But HR is made up of individual people - and most individual people want to do a decent job - and every HR person will have been told that a key part of their job is ensuring good working relations amongst staff. Protecting the institution from liability is important - but so is protecting the institution from the deleterious effects of bad people management and feuds - up to and including the loss of good workers.
