Because if you are entitled to it, then you are expected to take it. A work-around is to say that you were a full-time student last year. This will disqualify you.

Go thru the Retirement Savings Contribution Credit Interview again, and during that indicate you were a student during 2019.....that will remove it and then you won't be forced to upgrade to Deluxe (and pay a lot more than $27 (Online Deluxe Software + 1 State too is ~$80 total) )
