While rethinking how to dictate things into Drafts, I had an a-ha moment. I really just need to get a noun into the system quickly while I am out doing stuff. The nouns are the things that change the most in my tasks. The verbs are more or less kinda constant.

I set up a quick capture system using Drafts on the watch (dictation or typing), an Apple Shortcut to add a verb to the captured noun, and then the "sentence" gets sent to my to-do list inbox.

It isn't hard to type a verb for sure but this makes it so I don't have to type out hundreds and hundreds of verbs.

Very cool. ( ^ . ^ ) \m/
