After you file

"Personally, for me, it doesn't matter if the 1040X comes from line 16, 18 or 24 in the 1040. "

 

I'm trying to let you know how to populate form 1040-X when you do it yourself, as you said you might, based on your revised/correct tax return.

If TurboTax has bugs that's a separate issue.

 

I'll repeat, your tax Line 6 comes from 1040 Line 18 which is the sum of Line 16 and 17.

In that way you "include the amount from Schedule 2 Line 3" as per the Instructions.
