Comment (by earnjam):

 In today's example of "nothing is ever simple in multisite", upon digging
 on this a bit more, I discovered that the `Save Changes` button is at the
 bottom because the sites list has the `myblogs_options` filter, which in
 theory would allow plugins to add additional fields for
 submitting/processing. It defaults to an empty string, but could be used
 to insert extra inputs into this form.

 My original thought on this ticket was to simply shorten the `<form>` to
 only include the Primary Site select, but that would break any usage of
 this filter that adds inputs.

 The other option is to do as @amcreative did and simply move the save
 button to the top. That would not break usage of the filter, but it would
 make it less ideal if you had a long list of sites and made a change at
 the bottom and had to scroll back up.

 I'm not sure how much that filter is actually used in the wild, but I'm
 hesitant to change it without some understanding.
