Andrew and Angel are forgiven because well... they meant well.
Exactly. In the midst of it all they still play on Angel jokes, which itself would suggest how seriously they think that storyline was, and Buffy tacitly praising Andrew's ability to set up a so-called ideal life.
It comes off to me as, as you said elsewhere, blatant paralleling with Twangel and not in a good way. More like saying 'Come on, wasn't really *that* bad, was it?'
And she'll forgive him just as she'll forgive Angel. Book it.
