Exchange For Merchandise Credit In Gift Card Form

After reading this thread, I am a bit unclear about whether, if one returns an item for a merchandise credit (in the form of a gift card), the exchange for the card counts as a return and would cause the Avios points to be reversed, or whether the points would stand.

Has anyone had experience with this as yet, or any sense of certainty about how such an exchange would be treated? I understand that gift cards are not included for Avios point credit, but was wondering if an exchange would, in effect, be considered a merchandise exchange/credit rather than an outright gift card purchase (admittedly a somewhat subtle distinction!) Thanks.
