How come when buying a ticket and want to change the return date they charge a $100 fee and not on a redemption ?

my recent story here.
I redeemed HKG>YVR and LAX>HKG J class on 7th Aug
Suppose I was planning come back on 17th Aug, but CX only able to give me 16th. I redeem it anyway and told CS wait list for me (3+1 infant J tix)
On tuesday (14th Aug) I got an email from [email protected] title : Change of your booking status
saying
"Dear XXXX,
Your booking on Business Class of CX885 (LAXHKG), 17Aug12 has been confirmed. Please check details on Manage My Booking."
At the same time my wife got a SMS too, but not me (strange eh?)
So I quickly call MP/AM the 1-886 number (mind you the 800 doesn't work on stupid AT&T and T-mobile) and confirmed all 3 seats + 1 infant.
Easy as 1 2 3
