It's a poor decision by the CA, but AT did themselves no favours by not putting forward (or being in a position to put forward) some better reasons for granting relief from sanctions.

One interesting point is that the CA's approach to the CPR now seems to be stricter than the approach which the courts would take on an application to extend the limitation period under section 33 (see, eg, Nicholas v MoD, decided at the end of July). Can that really be right?
