Coddling other people's [issues] just sounds like any other social norms to me.

No that's not a recipe for healthy relationships. A healthy relationship is where you excuse others accidental faux pas in the interest of maintaining a good relationship. Only if they become highly offensive do you consider breaking off relations. That's how social norms work.

I'm not talking about faux pas. I'm talking about the things you're expected to do, or not do, for the sake of managing the emotions of others.

People don't normally manage the emotions of others (other than maybe a hysterical girlfriend). At least it's not something I've ever done.
