You could say that the HNF is useful for identifying common factors, but not for removing them. But if you leave them behind in the column-style HNF, the information that is retained in the unimodular matrix which is the other product of the Hermite decomposition, is enough to preserve everything important about the temperament, to get you back to where you started via an inverse and a trimming of extraneous rows.
