As of Skyrim 1.8.151, this condition function is not used in Skyrim or any of its official plug-ins. Because of this, this function's intended purpose or functionality is unknown.

For example, assaulting an actor's spouse may cause that actor to become hostile too. In that case, a GetShouldHelp condition between the spouses would return 1.
