I don't think anyone is disputing your statement, DoninGA, because we understand an 8453 cannot be e-filed. However, I don't understand your point. We were talking about the inconsistency of TT essentially saying "upload your 1099B PDF form and we will take care of it so you won't have to mail it in" and then saying in the cover sheet instructions "to mail said form in with the 8453 transmittal form; but if a 1099B does not need to be mailed in, of course there is no need to mail in a 8453 transmittal form.
