I think that the issue here is that a wallet credit is not a refund. "Refund" has a very specific meaning in this context, which means refund to original form of payment. All fares other than Y and F have no refunds past 24 hrs; X is not special in this regard.
Reading the fare rules makes it very clear that you get no credit if you cancel ("no residual value"), but it is not mentioned clearly on the AS website (at least, not on the link posted above), so I can see how there might be some confusion.
I just think that it would be silly to offer tickets that can't be changed, but have value after cancellation.
