Jecht Token
In my last match I had a token of Jecht, Reluctant Guardian. The token was made Sin, Spira’s Punishment. When I attacked with Jecht it gave me the option to exile him so he could return as the back side of the card. But when I exiled him he did not return. Is this working as intended? If so it doesn’t seem very intuitive.
This caused me to lose my third match in my draft. I likely would have won too if Jecht had flipped (or even if I just had the front side of the card) It was a decent draft too as I was 4-2 before this loss so it’s pretty frustrating.

A token that leaves the battlefield cannot return. It will stay in its new zone, and ceases to exist the next time state based actions are checked.
111.8. A token that has left the battlefield can’t move to another zone or come back onto the battlefield.
If such a token would change zones, it remains in its current zone instead. It ceases to exist the next
time state-based actions are checked; see rule 704.
