Supercard the only SD based cart that saves in real time?

I was looking into buying an EZ4 or M3, but it seems you have to power down then power up your DS in order for the save to be written to the SD card. Am I the only one who thinks this is silly? What if your kids or wife or someone else is using it and don't understand or forget, or you forget yourself? Hours of time could be wasted. Why is it that only the Supercard can write the saves to the SD card in real time and the others can't?

m3 and g6 also can write in real time save format, and i think they have 3 slots each.
black Ds lite (flash me V7)
2GB MicroSD japan kingston
Supercard Lite
EZ flash deluxe
R4

I believe the G6 can, but it's not SD based. Every review I've read of the M3-SD says you have to power cycle in order to write the save to the SD card. I guess it is because the save is stored in special save ram that has to be written afterwards.  Or am I wrong? Why not just write it to the SD card right away like the Supercard does?
