actually GIl never actually went serious against Shirou (EMIYA) since he never use Enkidu till the end. note that Enkidu is more precious than Ea for Gil and the fact that he never use it against both Emiya on UBW proofed that Gil till the end doesn't acknowledge him (he rather lose to Emiya than using Enkidu against him) for example he can restrain Shirou and skewer him like Heracles or he can block Shirou slash that aimed at Ea with it, but nay, Shirou is not worthy enough for Enkidu

on the other hand halting Iskandar with Enkidu shows that Gil acknowledge and respect Iskandar to the highest degree, Gil even went as far as to reject Iskandar friendship offer in a roundabout way, instead saying something like "know your place" so Gil stopping Iskandar in the last moment using Enkidu can be taken as a roundabout way to show how much he respect Iskandar
