I'm guessing it had more to do with Guilbeault deciding it wasn't worth the headache in the grand scheme of things as opposed to any sense of defeat.

Guillbault deciding? That's a rather comical take considering he literally just had to unblock Levant from Twitter 2 years ago and instead chose to fight this in court forming a pretty petty defense with multiple court appearances, wasting our court systems time, lawyer time, judge time and taxpayer dollars. It's been in courts for 2 years when a simple unblock would have sufficed. He was told by his lawyers he has zero case and to consent to the order to avoid an embarrassing ruling relating to the charter of rights and likely was pressured to consent.
It's customary to pay 20K in legal cost, fully consent to comply on a court order with removing the block and barring any future block, and embarrassingly request a confidentiality clause on release of the order that was rejected by the applicant, effectively giving the applicant 100% of their demands?
What a colossal waste of time and taxpayer money as a result of a petty government official.
