Knowing the right thing to do and actually doing it are sometimes two different things. Studying the cause in bystander inaction can't hurt the situation, as the situation already existed. Knowing that as the number of witnesses go up, the likelihood of any one witness intervening goes down can help to counter the effect.
I think that understanding why people act the way they do is nearly always helpful in combatting undesirable behaviors.
