Agreed - I don't think we should be forced to mis-report our 1098s, etc.
From my understanding, on the desktop version, you change manually override the "average" outstanding mortgage on the worksheet (which is not submitted to the IRS), which will in turn lead to the correct return. Thus, you can still enter all your 1098 information correctly as you are supposed to (with the outstanding debt listed, etc), but just override TurboTax's average outstanding mortgage calculation on their worksheet.
However, you can only do the above for the desktop version, which is a severe limitation of their service. I imagine most are using the online version. They should enable online users to manually edit their worksheet, too.
