Retirement tax questions

Last question on this, in the turbo tax instructions on how to fill out the 2019 1099-R in 2018 tax forms*,  it says to use Code P?  Wouldn't Code 8 be more appropriate?     


*  Report the excess deferral on your 2018 return in the Income section for Retirement Plans and Social Security whether or not you received a Form 1099-R before you file your return. Enter as much information as you can. Report the excess deferral amount in boxes 1 and 2a, and use code P in box 7. Indicate that this is a 2019 Form 1099-R.
