Here's the situation: I'm on a vacation - perhaps for 3 weeks - and the need arises for me to return to the point of origin for a short time - perhaps one day (a business emergency). So I buy a return ticket back to the point of origin and, upon return from that trip, resume my vacation.</font>
In theory - AC would expect you to pay a change fee to move up your return date. Then buy another ticket to resume your vacation.
I don't want to flame up this old topic but...
I'm not sure that AC could possibly have anything to object to with this situation...you are not trying to cheat AC out of any revenue with this itinerary and are well within your rights to buy a return ticket from your original destination to your point of origin.
I don't even consider this nesting, since the point of that is to get two return trips to a certain destination for less than you would pay by buying both tix in your home market.
