HSRP, GLBP and VRRP is for Layer 3 redundancy

Here is my question to you 

What does STP accomplish (loop prevention), so...... why would loops occur?

What does STP allow you to do?

Subject: [OSL | CCIE_RS] loop prevention and redundancy

Hi Expert,

Since most of my time study cisco only in lab environment (in my
university)and now I get into real world situation, I found something that
bother me a lot. In my understanding STP is for loop prevention and not for
redundancy, right ? but why my colleague and people I met they said it's for
redundancy (those guys are already in this business for at least 3 years
experience).Thus, I always argue with them..hmm am I missed something here ?
because for redundancy we can use HSRP, GLBP and VRRP.


Thanks
