Yeah I hear you, there are 2 oddities here we probably want to address:

1. Consistency with “create account” (we are not doing a live “check the email is taken”) check.

Vs: Create account page:

1. We stripped down the “accept invite page” so much that header is gone and there is no trivial way to sign in.

In fact the page is so stripped down you have edit URL to find the home page.

I agree we should fix both issues. So the TODO is:

1. Ensure a **login** and way to get to **home** link is included on the accept invite stripped down page.

2. Fix the issue where we are not doing live email checks, like we do on sign up which leads to confusion.
