I think both of them have proven on several ocassions that they definitely don't lack the determination to "play on". I think this might have been a gesture of recognition by Magnus, as if saying: "you deserve a WC title!". Nepo is one of the bravest chess players on the professional arena...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=_evi... Heartbreaking indeed. Remember: chess is not like other sports, say tennis, where you can be a 2 sets down, 5 games to 0, and 40 love and still come back. When you play chess, ONE SINGLE error can mean instant defeat. That's how BRUTAL it is. Be humble in victory!
