flight changes to an F ticket - really expensive!!

hi I purchased an F ticket out of Italy (Venice -> Sydney -> Venice) for ~5200 euro. (skywards flex fare) ... (I know the equivalent Sydney - Venice - Sydney is something like $12,000 AUD in F!)

I've done the Venice to Sydney in January and am doing the Sydney to Venice in May.

I called up Emirates and also tried doing it online, to move my flight (EK413 on A380) to a day earlier in May....and the option was to pay something like 15,000 euro and that was to Business (no available first class)!

Has anyone else found changing dates on a paid F class ticket quite difficult and quite a lot different to original fare paid? (I would have thought a full fare F ticket (admittedly it's almost half price when purchased originating in Europe VS purchased originating in Australia) would offer some degree of flexibility in terms of changing flights)
