One other thing is the conclusion seems to be those who lose smell don’t develop other symptoms. So this loss of smell could be considered a flag to identify otherwise asymptomatic infections that can still be spread.

In whatever article i was reading the other day,  it noted that there were some cases where there was loss of smell and fatigue and/or coughing.
OK, my memory sucks and I was too lazy to realize I had a link to the article. =)

It looks like the article is focusing on the cases where lack of smell/taste is the only indicator, but I think the following can be interpreted as that loss can come with other symptoms?

"In South Korea, where testing has been more widespread, 30% of patients testing positive have had anosmia as their major presenting symptom in otherwise mild cases," the president of the British Rhinological Society Professor, Clare Hopkins, and the president of the British Association of Otorhinolaryngology, professor Nirmal Kumar, said in a joint statement.
