Does michigan form 5889 really prevent e-filing?

The state site says you can e-file, but the turbotax program says it's not set up to do so. I don't want to print and mail if I don't really have to.

Form MI 5889 is an unsupported form in TurboTax. You will need to print, attach the form, and mail your state tax return. See Form MI 5889 to complete.

In the past the information was taken from the federal forms (Schedule E or C as applicable) directly to the MI Schedule 1 and those federal schedules were part of the MI e-file to support the amounts.

For tax year 2023 to claim the MI Gas, oil extraction deduction on your MI state taxes, you will need to print/mail your MI state return.

Thank you for the answer, but had I known that turbotax doesn't care about supporting this and allowing e-filing as a result, I wouldn't have wasted the money to purchase.
