I don’t consider that to be the correct behavior at all. When I want to save something I want to save it exactly as displayed. Requesting the page again could defeat the whole purpose of saving the page.
Here is one example: You opened the front page of some news site a few hours ago and now want to save it. Since news sites change frequently you would save a completely different page compared to what you actually wanted to save if the page were re-requested when saving. This is destructive behavior! No browser should do that.
(I just tested what Google Chrome actually does. It does not actually re-request the page when saving.)
