Thank you! So, from what I understand, regardless of the before bracha, the proper thing to do was to then finish eating with the appropriate after bracha — and that is because (guessing here), each mitzvah has its own merit.

Even if I messed up on the first mitzvah of saying the right bracha before eating, saying the after bracha is an independent mitzvah.
