It was meant to reduce the hard flavor for the people who find tequila strong, then it just keeps on as fashion.
If you want to use it, it is better to have the lime first to clear and open your throat and then the tequila (If you really appreciate tequila)

Haven't you ever heard that song by Tanya Tucker, lets see it goes like this " Jose Cuervo, he was a friend of mine, I like to drink you with a little salt and lime...... " .
Never hit my shots with anything but the above ...... its just not written in the books to do it any other way, its not proper unless your shot is straight up.
