You're making the assumption that although you're being harassed the best outcome for you and the company are aligned. This is definitely not always the case, if you are being harassed and it happens to be in the best interest for the company to get rid of you, for whatever reason, guess what happens next?

HR will consider downside risk too. It's usually not the whole story to say that getting rid of you will be simple and easy. You might file a lawsuit. Your colleagues might be demoralized. Other teams might start hearing about the situation and protesting in various ways. The government might get involved. It might lead to bad PR.

Lawsuits and bad press.

Are you making the claim that every wrongful termination ends in lawsuits and bad press?

Dubious.
