From you early comment along the lines of "I make my taxes as complicated as possible so that I can save money on taxes"

You would never take the one number if you could save money by making it a thousand instead. Eg. if your state did that simplification, youd move to a different state that doesn't have the simplification so you can save a couple bucks on the taxes
