Unity tree only removes the need for things to be one space away. It doesn't make anything more happy, it just allows you to move decorations or monsters away from each other. So if you had an item that made a monster happy and it wasn't next to the monster, then you'd notice the hearts appear and the happiness go up. But many people who had already decorated and had monsters mostly happy may not notice anything different. If everything on your island were already 100% happy, then you wouldn't notice a thing when you bought the Unity tree.

The real purpose is to allow for more decoration options. Otherwise people tend to have the same monsters next to the same decorations on their islands to save money.
