There are two different buttons, look at the tooltips: The one showing only
'sigma x' produces 'sum', the other one produces 'from to', i. e. the lower and
upper boundary. These can be applied to the sum, product, integral, ... signs,
so
it makes sense that there are these different buttons. (Only the icon is a bit
misleading.)

Latex makes sense if you work with math formulas regularly.
What I like with OOO math: You can use the menu if you are a beginner or for
things you don't use often; for things you use more often you can learn the
keyword and type it.
