What would happen then if one called remember from a previous remember buffer, then saved it?

The number will usually be zero, so that is when I would do it.  Of
course it should be combined with "successfully saved to ...".

I like it after rather than before saving because, in my view, we want
to limit the amount of attention required between "have an idea" and
"saved the idea".

Perhaps there are other times for it, but then would work for me.
