Mortgage interest worksheet

The home mortgage interest worksheet includes a place to enter points. But in the case where the taxpayer has a new mortgage, points are paid, and the average loan balance is more than $750K, it appears that the worksheet does nothing with the points (doesn't even prorate).  This does not make sense.

Hey Frank!  Welcome.  I think I still have the dummy return I was playing with when we discussed this.  Yeah, here's the screenshot.  Entries on this line for Points paid don't carry anywhere and they definitely should.

Oh, I probably should find an adult.  I'm not sure anyone is working ProSeries forums tonight but I can give @Ashley at Intuit (aka Henry Jr) a shout out and she can tag team someone on this.
