In MLO2, the bottom of the menu screen includes a grey 'Add to Inbox' button.
This leads to a task creation screen, where the new task is created in a smaller font than is used anywhere else in the app.
This smaller font makes it easy to create tasks full of typos, particularly if using this 'on the move'.
Does anyone know of a good reason why the text size here is smaller than usual?
Does this Add To Inbox screen do anything that you don't get by being in the Inbox and tapping '+' to add a new task?

I personally don't know why the "add to inbox" button exists. I have the "add task" 1x1 shortcut in the touchwiz toolbar at the bottom of every homepage. So I can always get to the widget in two clicks. Unlike the add to inbox button, the add task shortcut allows me to set context, date, etc with a couple  of extra clicks.

I'm thinking it's there because the default "Add" button in a task list no longer goes into the inbox but instead puts it next to the task you have selected, which I find confusing.

Curious, isn't it. If you're on the screen where you can see the grey Add to Inbox at the bottom, you can also see the actual Inbox at the top, where you can add a task. The extra tap involved in the latter route is often less effort than struggling with the tiny text size in the grey Add to Inbox.
