I created 1099Misc forms for sub-contracted labor in TurboTax Self Employed for 2019, 2018, etc. Why can't I create 1099ER for 2020?

Turbo Tax Help called me back and after over 30 minutes of trying THEY couldn't answer.  I cannot even locate prior year 1099s that I issued using Self-Employed on this website.

This year non-employee compensation is to be reported on Form 1099-NEC.  This form was reintroduced for 2020.
 

Before its reintroduction, the last time form 1099-NEC was used was back in 1982. Since then, prior to tax year 2020, businesses typically filed Form 1099-MISC to report payments totaling $600 or more to a nonemployee for certain payments from the trade or business. These payments generally represent nonemployee compensation and, up until now, would typically appear in box 7 of 1099-MISC.
 

In order to help clarify the separate filing deadlines when reporting different types of payments on Form 1099-MISC, the IRS decided to reintroduce Form 1099-NEC which has a single filing deadline for all payments that use the form.

This did not answer the question, "Why can't I create...?" etc.
