yes

so...since perish song transfers through baton pass, you're pretty much "sacrificing" a pokemon basically?

and if I didn't use detect, I might have had lost either Absol, or 2 other pokemon.

yep.

I thought detect doesn't prevent against perish song...

no, but it protects absol so it won't be ko'ed while you wait for perish song to take effect. going straight to baton pass would leave the switched in pokemon vulnerable for that turn, so it could be ko'ed before and then you would have to switch in another pokemon which would be killed by perish song.
