This was one of the leaked cards from earlier still incrediable to see a card with the permanent exile bounce trick
They do this with all the exile target spell effects. I don't think they were able to get the wording to work where it wasn't confusing. Imagine if it said exile target spell until X leaves the battlefield. Is the spell recast? How does it get back on the stack? Do permanents go to the battlefield? What about instants and sorceries? Is this like when you exile a manifested instant/sorcery? Basically it would require a lot of specific rulings for a corner case that generally won't come up at low level play.

When Ashiok's Erasure enters the battlefield, exile target spell.
Your opponents can't cast cards with the same name as the exiled card.
When Ashiok's Erasure leaves the battlefield, return the exiled card to its owner's hand.

I feel like I should know this but it's the New Years....
What bounce trick?
It's the reason they changed Oblivion Ring effects to be one single effect. If you cast this spell, and while its enter the battlefield trigger is on the stack, bounce it back to your hand, the return-the-spell-to-their-hand effect triggers. Then the removal. So the card is gone forever. All new Oblivion Ring effects are 1 effect, so if you bounce it, their card remains on the battlefield. i.e. Prison Realm. This card has the old templating, meaning you can bounce it to exile the spell forever.

They did the recast thing without a problem on Spell Queller. I’m guessing the main reason why it returns the spell to the owner’s hand rather than letting the person cast it for free is that it would become way too abusable with Teferi, Time Raveler, since he could bounce the enchantment to reuse again and his static ability would completely stop people from casting that spell again if the card was worded like queller.
