Most pastes are self priming so its not needed.
Also, the sbr layer will make it harder for the paste to dry out.
I know what you're saying I know of some pastes that are self priming ardex d20 I think it is springs to mind but really are you telling me that as you put a paste on the wall it instantly seals the wall to stop any moisture in the paste prematurely drying into the background .

I'm not suggesting that the pastes seal a porus substrate,rather that they don't necessarily need it sealed.
Pastes are fairly slow to dry and a porus substrate to help aid the process would seem to me, to be a good thing.
