Michael interviews that this is how men settle differences: after they fight, they tell each other to "hug it out," and then they let it go, "and walk away, and they're done."

Michael really must trust Dwight if he's willing to hand over a load of white dress shirts and not fear that they might "accidentally" get laundered with a load of beets.
