I think the button is rather there for navigation and I guess it's there for consistency with the /default navigation/ for creating a basic page: choose title and description - adding blocks - return to higher level view. 
It makes sense to me know but I remember that I was startled by that button as well and maybe that discussion I remembered was internally with my colleagues. So I guess it may be consistent, but it's not intuitive and I'm supporting you at improving it ^^

One option would be to make the block view not working directly on the
page and make it require pressing a "Save" button, though that might be
a lot of change to the form, would increase the number of clicks you
need to create a form and would startle everyone who got used to the
current work flow.

Or we could make the "Edit title and description" and "Edit layout"
pages save on edit as well and change all buttons to something like
"Proceed to Content".

Title:
  Page management improvements required

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  I'd like to suggest a number of improvements around a single page
  management:

  1. "Display page" should be called "Preview page" (and should probably
  go after "Share page"). I think the idea behind the order was that
  user wants to have a look what they made and then share, but without
  tabs menu this idea is completely lost.

  2. Therefore, tabs should appear on every page when a page is being
  edited. Currently it is very confusing that when you click "sharing"
  for a page, it doesn't show the other buttons "edit layout", "edit
  content" etc.

  3. Preview could reuse 'view/view.php?mode=preview' or smth similar to
  show tabs.

  4. Everywhere there is "Save" button, but on "Edit content" it is
  "Done" and when you click it, it navigates you to "All pages" page. It
  should go to "Preview" and be called "Save". Or maybe there should be
  2 options "Save and share" and "Save and preview", but I don't think
  it's necessary...
