It may or may not be. Just becaus the heats off of Courtney and Hiero for now doesn't mean the bad blood won't get spilled again down the line. As they say, little white lies come back to haunt you.

Additonally, even if most beleived Hiero's lie, the fact that he didn't vote for Leshawna still came out and lowered his affinity with everyone. If the lie hadn't come out, Gwen would've trusted Hiero enough to follow his lead this episode.
