Why would we want to take away someones ability to define their own default user dictionary? Where would words go when selecting "Add to Default" if they deleted the user dictionary named "default" (as is their right and choice)?

You're getting hung up on semantics. "Add to Default" is not intended to mean "Add to the user dictionary named 'default'". It's intended to mean "Add to the user dictionary you've defined as your Default one".

We may entertain the notion of making choosing which user dictionary a user wants to select as their default more definitive. One that's not quite as fickle as accidentally leaving it selected (as in the case of creating a new one) in the dictionary dialog. But we're not going to hard code "Add to Default" to only ever add words to a user dictionary named "default".
