Paul was precise with his words (e.g. “Now”) and tenses.

Sorry, but that sounds like the idea that Paul used present tense to note that sabbat "is" a shadow of things to come.
I maintain my position. Paul explained that when anyone makes a statement at any given time such as the news of a NEW thing, at that moment the old begins to vanish away. This maintains the comprehensive reading and the grammar involved.
