When you create a user and you cancel the invitation, you can't create the same user anymore. You will get a message that the user is already part of the organization. Which is not true as in reality this user does not exists.
Step 1: Create a user
Step 2: Click on cancel on the invitation page
Step 3: Try to create the user again

Does the user account show in the All Users table under the server admin section?

No the user is nowhere to be found. Not under All Users in the Server Admin section, nor in the Organizations Users section.

Do you see the invitation in the invitations screen on the side bar? I
think they wont show up as a user until they accept the invite but you
can delete the invite if you dont want to do it anymore.
I think the fix here is maybe to remove the cancel button because at
that point the invite is already created.

Blocking a user prevents them from interacting with repositories, such as opening or commenting on pull requests or issues. Learn more about blocking a user.
