The former method has been a proven method. The latter method nobody has reported using. So it would be nice if you could kindly provide more details. Thanks!
Another DP that speaks to this question: Late last week, I booked a flight entirely with a trip credit on the day that the trip credit was expiring. Today, I just modified that flight to change the return to leave one day earlier. The new flight was less than the one I purchased with the expiring (and now expired) trip credit last week.
I was just issued a new trip credit for the difference in fare and the new credit expires one year from today.
I can't say with certainty what would have happened if I had canceled the flight entirely but I sure imagine that I would have gotten the same trip credit (i.e., expiring in one year).
