Retirement tax questions

i assume the screen I did not see nor filled out is displayed only after answering a generic question about receiving government checks which in prior years would be about monthly checks.  I would have answered no to this question not knowing this also included the COVID stimulus checks.  Because the COVID stimulus checks were extraordinary any questions about COVID checks should not be dependent upon answering yes to a generic question about government income.  The TurboTax GUI caused the software to erroneously populate my 1040 with false info because the software made the mistake of no response to a question is considered data as I never answered any questions about receiving or not receiving any COVID income.  I feel this is a mistake on Turbo Taxes software and it caused my 1040 to be filled out incorrectly.
