There appears to be a bug in the "What-If" Worksheet

I wanted to evaluate the difference in Total Tax for married couple when filing jointly vs separately (Tax year 2024; desktop version).
We have two children so we get a $4,000 tax credit when filing jointly

We have completed our return
I opened the  "What-If" Worksheet, and checked the box to compare "filing jointly vs separately ".
On line 51, it correctly show the $4,000 child credit for a joint return. 
However, for the individual column it also shows $4,000 Tax credit for each person.
I believe this is a bug; I think that it should show a Tax credit of $2,000/person!?

How can we report bugs to Intuit? I tried to call their "Tax Expert" line but she had clue what I was talking about...

There appears to be a bug in the "What-If" Worksheet

I’m having issues on desktop version and trying to figure out how to report the bug too. Earlier this afternoon, I was receiving error messages on the app and took screenshots for my records. Then new issues on desktop version arose like being unable to delete line items (screen recorded), and docs uploaded that imported and autofilled info no longer in documents uploaded session. Spoke with rep for 45-minutes going in circles on phone while sharing screen with rep. I asked for the rep’s manager or if it could be escalated to someone in tech support, and he advised none of them are available. I then asked for his name or employee ID and he hung up, but luckily calls are recorded. He originally said the errors were due to traffic, had me log out, I also deleted cookies/cache, and waited about 10-minutes until he said it was okay to try again. Either way, never got fixed, and he said it’s a tech error so just file by mail before he hung up. Hope your issue and mine are resolved soon.
