Deductions & credits

I tried the technique you suggested, including starting from scratch and freshly entering the 1098 data.  $59 was still carried over to Schedule A.

In your test case did the Mortgage Interest Worksheet incorrectly show that this loan is/was "... the result of refinancing a previous loan?"

This failure is not the least bit subtle.  It's as if the case of "No, I used some or all of this loan on a different home or on something other than a home." was never subjected to even the most simple testing.

Do the TurboTax developers monitor community content?
