Because putting 0 on your w4 when you know you have to pay taxes is a mistake. The tool is there to help you calculate. It's not difficult, you just take your last pay stub and plug in numbers then it does the rest. Could it be easier sure. But this is how you work with the tools we have.
Yeah, we’re talking past each other.
I understand how to do it, I just don’t think it makes sense that it’s necessary to do it that way.
Zero should equal “max taxes withheld” and the fact that it’s more complicated than that makes it feel intentionally complex (which I’m aware it is)
