Adjustments to income are by legislative grace and enumerated in IRC section 62.  I think the IRS form design folks did a pretty good job of including them on the new 2021 Schedule 1 Part II.  This isn't an area where you can just make up your own stuff.  If you're fudging numbers to match bad 1099 forms, all of the fudge should be above the line, not below it.
