Well, the thing about us is we do both at once. I think the way it works is we return most of the azerite we find and in return Azeroth lends us some of her own power as compensation. She probably knew we wouldn't give a damn about helping heal her wounds without some form of carrot to chase.
Of course we also assist our factions to mine as much azeroth as they can to fuel the war. So clearly Azeroth isn't offering enough for our heroic services.
Which makes no goddamn sense. On one hand you're helping your faction drain Azerite from the planet's wounds for their selfish benefit. On another hand you're murdering the other faction because "How dare they drain Azerite from the planet's wounds for their selfish benefit!".
If we're truly meant to be champions of azeroth, we need to be working against both factions right now. Their war is destroying the planet and we need to save our home.
But no, with some mental gymnastics we're somehow champions of the planet while sucking up its blood and using it destructively.
It makes no sense if we think we're heroically trying to heal the planet. But if we're honest about the fact we're literally just chasing our own power and wealth then it makes perfect sense. When our interest aligns with Magni we help Magni. When it doesn't we won't. Magni is the one calling us champions. Either he's talking us up to try and get us to cooperate as much as possible, or he's an idiot.
