What happened to the blocks for reporting unreimbursed travel expenses for Armed Forces Reserve duty, specifically air fare and car rental?

Travel expenses when drilling more than 100 miles from HOR used to be deductible.  What happened to the blocks for claiming air fare and car rental when not paid by the USG?

Enter your airfare and car rental in the Lodging box. This will go to Form 2106, line 3 (Travel expenses while away from home overnight, including lodging airfare, car rental, etc.).

Thanks, that is not inherently obvious from the software.  I spent an hour or so on IRS.gov yesterday and the wording there is similarly ambiguous, focusing almost solely on whether or not MIE were paid.
