It is counter-productive to have them fight, but it's not something that Kyube has any power to stop, either. Well, if he had super-strong MG who could step in, that would be one thing; but Madoka doesn't want to do it.
As far as grief seed collection, that's just how the magic works in this universe. It makes a certain sense, since it is the essence of guerrilla warfare. You take your enemies weapons and use them, much like you have the hero in an FPS game pick up the weapons that his opponents drop. So Kyube can have his girls continually power themselves by using the magic of the witches.
Of course, since we don't know how or why this system got set up, we can't say for sure. But just because the girls have to use grief seeds, doesn't mean there isn't some reason behind it that Kyube is powerless to change. And that seems to be a running theme here; Kyube is essentially powerless to do anything except contract with MG's and store grief seeds.

I find it hard to believe that he would not even try to stop Kyoko and Sayaka from fighting. And to the fact that he can literally torture the MG just by pressing his paw against their soul gems, seems to indicate he has some control over their actions. This means that he can enforce his will upon the girls to maintain the contract, or coerce them once he makes a contract. About the fight specifically, he didn't seem to have any qualms about Kyoko's method to farm Grief seeds either.
If it meant letting a couple humans get devoured or killed to allow the familiars to develop into full fledge witches. They're not actively combating witches, but akin to fattening up pigs for the slaughter, which is against QB's so called wishes to protect humanity from witches, yet he doesn't seem to show any problems with this method. It does not actively lower the population of witches, akin to a predator-prey ecosystem, rather enforces a self-preserving cycle.
About the magic bit. I'm a bit skeptical and cautious to say that QB uses a witches power to create MG akin to Pandora in Freezing. First it must mean there is a strong connection between witches and MG than we previously thought. It could mean that MG are created from witches, meaning it wouldn't be surprising to say the reverse couldn't happen as well. If you read the Claymore series you'll know what I'm hinting at.
