War is irresponsible, but a multipolar world is not. This is the US securing Australian alignment with the West, nothing more, nothing less.

What do Australians get out of it? Fuck if I know. Their largest trading partner is China. They're rather isolated from US support in the event of a hot war. They really benefit the most from peace and non-alignment tbh.
