I 100% believe in "utilizing" (some would say "exploiting") Alaska's policies to maximize benefit to the traveller. So, kudos for finding a loophole that allows you to keep this ticket value.
At the same time, I hope this doesn't happen so often that Alaska notices and decides to change its policies...
