Out of their way? Weeks later after they had disassembled it and published the results? After they had outed the engineer for no good reason?
Apple approached Gizmodo first, and Gizmodo replied with a snarky letter. Then they forced Apple to issue a request for return in writing?

Hardly seems like Gizmodo went the extra mile to return the device.
