This is not a limitation enforced by TurboTax, it is enforced by the IRS. The IRS puts constraints on consumer level software that are not imposed on professional software.
Do you have any citations for that? I have seen several comments that other consumer software is capable of attaching some PDF where TurboTax does not (but I don't know the specific details of what exactly the other software allows).
No, I'm not going to dig into the XML specifications for the e-file program. Take it as entirely Turbotax's fault if you prefer. Maybe they don't want to have to troubleshoot problems caused by customer inputs outside the standard program parameters. If I was a paid tax preparer myself, I would take the time to find software that would allow this attachment. But I'm not.
