So if Florida doesn't have me file state taxes, why am I being charged by Turbo tax to file?

@Anonymous_ in my county, a long term rental owner can get away with it, so long as they don't give the county a reason to check. But short term rentals flat out can't get away with it in my county. They know good and well that a short term rental is furnished, and if you don't include the appliances on the DR-405 they'll reject it. Doesn't matter if you break out the appliances on the federal tax return or not.

I am not at all certain why any long-term rental owner would want to "get away with it" or what, exactly, they would be getting away from. After all, if the owner files a DR-405, the owner gets an exemption for the first $25,000 of valuation; exceeding that sum would necessitate some extremely high end appliances.
