Feedback on confusing TurboTax extension e-filing screen

When e-filing an extension form, TT is asking me to supply my 2017 AGI, which I know is on line 38 of the 1040 from last year. But SPOUSE AGI? I'm married filing jointly, so why would there be a separate line for that? In fact there is NOT. You're just supposed to enter your household AGI again. The same number.

TT already knows that I'm MFJ (it just asked me in the last screen) so why is it asking separately for spouse AGI? And how would I know that it's expecting the same figure twice in this case? (I landed on the correct answer by trial and error.) Intuit, please fix this...
