I kind of suspect doing a strait turnaround would be liable to confuse everyone at the airport and thus yield very unpredictable results.
I've done this flight in reverse, actually it was PNH-VTE-HAN portion of it.

Anyway, these 'direct' flights might well be the reason there is transfer security but it's little used.
