Because the program is still not fully functional and will not be for some time now.
These first releases of the program are usually very buggy ( you are the beta testers even if you don't know it) and will require MANY updates before it becomes fully functional which usually will not happen until late January or sometime in February depending on the forms you need. So patience will be needed as the IRS has not even announced when the 2019 filing season will start
This past tax year, not only did the IRS have to rewrite a ton of tax code due to the late changes made in Dec of 2017 but the fools in Congress required they also toss out all the old form 1040 forms for the new "1040 Simplified" version ( which is anything but simplified since it adds 6 new schedules) and all these changes have the IRS way behind the normal timeline so expect things to not only run late but they will be VERY BUGGY so the smart money is on the patient person who waits to file until most of the errors have been corrected. Last time this happened many of the early filers had their returns lost or delayed for months so don't be in a hurry to jump off that cliff.
