I just thought this was an interesting quirk

is savage punch the only card that uses the "before" timing - ie, where an action appears later in the card but the card specifically tells you to do that thing first
Yes, it is. Almost everything else that uses "before" is defining a casting/activating restriction (Master Warcraft), setting up an ante rider, or using it in reminder text only. The only other exceptions I can find are Backup Plan and cards like Quenchable Fire and Drain Life. And a few Un-cards, but those don't really count.

And so people say to me, "How do I know if a word is real?" You know, anyone who's read a children's book knows that love makes things real. If you love a word, use it! That makes it real. Being in the dictionary is an artificial distinction; it doesn't make the word any more real than any other word. If you love a word, it becomes real.
