The problem is everything cannot be in the interview as doing so would demand a huge amount of resources and would swallow up even large hard drives or SSDs.
I realize you believe this particular line should be included and is critical, but then other users also believe different lines, forms, and schedules in other modules should also be included and are just as critical.
TurboTax Business has a myriad of tax scenarios that require Forms Mode and it is doubtful that will ever change, partly due to the constraints mentioned earlier and also due to the lack of demand for certain features.
A couple of examples can be seen in the 1041 module. For estates or trusts that need to prepare a Schedule C or F, that must be done entirely in Forms Mode.
