Changeling and gaining from trash

When you gain something from the trash with Graverobber, and choose to exchange it for a Changeling, the card in the trash goes to its supply pile. I don't get why and think it should stay in the trash.

And when you gain something from the trash without a supply pile (like the Zombies), you don't get the option to exchange it for changeling at all.

This is all working as intended by Donald X.

And the paragraph from the Nocturne rulebook explaining how "exchange" works:
"Nocturne has three cards that tell a player to "exchange" a card for another card. The card being
exchanged is returned to its Supply pile, or non-Supply pile, and the card being exchanged for is taken
and put into the player's discard pile. This does not count as gaining a card. The exchange only happens if
both cards can be exchanged; if the pile is empty, the cards are not exchanged."

Thanks for the clarification. This was unexpected for me.
