I've been pushing apps out to the App store for some time now but I've never really wrapped my head around what the difference between Validate... and Submit to App Store... was. I always assumed the Submite to App Store... Task ran a validation on its own.
Am I wasting time by running a separate validate task

Before you send and upload your app to App Store Connect, Xcode validates the archive to determine whether it meets the minimum requirements set by the App Store and ensure that the app passes the App Store Connect checks.
After archive has been created, Xcode Organizer is opened. Xcode Organizer displays a list with builds of the current app. Pick the last build and click 'Upload to App Store'. There should be a place to select the team followed by some more information on the app and a "Upload" button to click.
On average, 90% of submissions are reviewed in less than 24 hours. You'll be notified by email of status changes. You can also check the review status of your submission in the My Apps section of App Store Connect or on the App Store Connect app for iPhone and iPad.
Yes, submitting to the app store runs the validation as well. You should validate if you're not submitting to the app store, but exporting (ad-hoc, etc.).
Validation uploads the bundle to iTuneConnect, where some automated tests are run on it.

Validate is just a automated test that will check quickly the packaging of your application (icon, provisionning profile,…)
The package is not pushed to Apple validating team.
