I am CERTAIN that this is simply Intuit's legal department taking an EXTREMELY defensive interpretation of a few state's guidelines.  Does ANYONE seriously believe that a software company will be fined or somehow punished by a state for a taxpayer sending them a document created by an accountant loaded with watermarks telling that NOT to file it?  It is RIDICULOUS. Anyone excusing Intuit because 'it is a state issue' is simply obsequious on steroids.
