The way I see it, while Discord was the most powerful of the main antagonists (that is, the two-parter ones), he was also the most neutral-hearted one. He used his powers solely for his own sense of amusement rather than for any productive ends. Now that he gained a sense of empathy, he knows not to be a conscious disturbance to the populace and thus why Celestia gave him freedom in exchange for him lending her some of his abilities. I doubt he'll be too buddy-buddy in future appearances, though - he is the Spirit of Chaos, after all.
