Actually the quick add does not add a extra step - you're entering the task title and the next screen is the full task screen entry screen with due date, etc. Even if you had "normal as default, which it is when you use quick entry, you would still have to enter the title and then go to the edit screen for due date, etc. so using quick entry is effectively the equivalent of the "old way" with no extra steps
