Line 20 on Calif Schedule CA not computing correctly

My spouse and I are both over 70.5 years old (at end of 2022 spouse was 71 and I was 75), but only my spouse had 2022 wages (greater than $14,000). We are both taking a $7000 IRA contribution deduction on our Federal taxes. And I noticed that TurboTax is not computing the California adjustment to this deduction correctly. Line 20 of Schedule CA shows this:

2022 Schedule CA (540) line 20.png

The adjustment in column B should be $14,000 (not $7000) since Calif tax law does not allow this deduction for people over 70.5. I can only conclude this is a bug in TurboTax. I played around with the amount of IRA contributions and determined that the $7000 adjustment showing above is actually for my spouse who has wages. The missing $7000 adjustment is actually associated with me (who has no wages). This suggests to me that there is a bug in the code. Obviously I can override this adjustment and correct it myself, but it would be nice to have TT compute it correctly.
