What happens if you Brush a Brush? Can you swap back the original battlefield you Brushed?

The Brush token ceases to exist. When swapping back, a player may choose to swap back to any replaced object, including the original battlefield. This works because replacing game objects inherit all statuses and conditions of replaced objects per rule 438.1, and "all effects and statuses" includes relationships between replaced and replacing battlefields.
