What-If Worksheet totally wrong

I'm trying to compare filing jointly vs separately since one of us happened to make significantly less this year due to circumstances.  But the "What-If Wks" form seems completely wrong.  The ages (listed correctly for MFJ) are wrong.  The income amounts are wrong.  For example, our DIV and capital gains income was only for one of us, but the MFS option is splitting it.  It's giving us both "IRA deductions" when neither of us contributed to an IRA.  There seems to be no way to opt into the Standard deduction for MFS -- even though the worksheet itself clearly shows an advantage to doing so.  It's apparently allowing BOTH of us to take the Child Tax credit on ALL our children.  

Are these all kinks that TurboTax will work out in future updates, or is this functionality just generally garbage?

Thanks to anyone with insight!
