Right? They're cultural psyche or zeitgeist, so can't be independent of context. Powers in conflict (or not), observed in a specific time and place.
I don't think Hera needs a redemption story - she's only cultural memory; it's not like people are actually devoted to her as the face of Power of Marriage anymore.

But stories of her still tell us about what the Greeks thought the Power of Marriage was and also its limitations. It's not as powerful as (Zeus being) Virility or Father/Creation or Weather, according to any Greek myth I've seen.
