Every scenario has different possible consequences.

Of course they wouldn't do that in a relegation decider.

The facts are, Leicester called the last game off, Forest were winning at the time.

It was in the spirit of the game, and fairness for Leicester to give them a goal.

Personally, I'd rather have seen them play one half of football with the score at 1-0 Forest. Always baffles me that a game that has gone on for 60 minutes (or whatever) and is subsequently abandoned has to be played again from scratch. Not fair at all.
