I only hate it because I can't figure out how to run a blocking script before everything else when a suspend is initiated.

Do scripts in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ not block? I've never had one fail to complete before suspend. I had to use one last year to dump debug stats before and after sleep while we were helping debug Cezanne sleep issues.

I guess not because in my attempts to get this working I did put a script there. Does * expansion not work in these scripts? Mind sharing your script if you still have one? I have 3 tabs open to learn systemd when I have time, I did watch a video so far :)

I'll have to dig them up the next time I fire up the laptop I used them on, I'll also look and see if I shoved them into a git repo.

There's some discussion here on the Arch forum that should be able to get you rolling though: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=276046

That should show you the general form those scripts need to take. I only had to use pre/post sleep ($1), I never needed $2 granularity.
