This is not really a program oversight... You have to understand the program is written for the masses not for the exceptions. There are several things the program doesn't handle automatically because it is not cost-effective to do so.
For many situations there are just too few users that are affected by the situation so TurboTax chooses not to deal with it. So the only way to handle this is in the forms mode with an override. Right now the 2019 filing season has closed so you're only choices to mail in the return. In the file tab choose the mail in option so the proper instructions and forms are populated in the PDF file.
