I mean they settled, but hes still banned and they didnt reinstate his scores and TG didnt have to keep blowing money on lawyers.

TG blew it in that they got a less than optimal outcome than they could have (blew a bunch of money on lawyers, had to “archive” Billy’s scores) and Billy got a way better outcome than he deserved (gets to spin the archival as vindication, gets to continue to bully people with lawsuits)

It had been better for gaming history had they been able to win the lawsuit and put an end to Billy’s false claims.

Either way, though, it seems people still see him as a cheater, even if the lawsuit didnt prove him so.
