Exactly.
What players (me included) usually pyhsically do when they have a Trickster in play and it is time to do cleanup, is to select a Treasure card (say a Gold), set it aside and put their other cards in play into their disard pile (assuming no other cleanup effects, duration cards, etc).
This is technically wrong!
Technically the Treasure card is discarded, and then gotten out of the discard pile and set aside from there. Doing it "wrong" physically for the overwhelming number of cases where Trickster is the only discard related effect for that Treasure card (and so doing it that way doesn't matter) may condition players to incorrectly assume that that Treasure card isn't discarded when it actutally matters (like with Capital).
