Expert assist is not skippable?

When you log in and only see Expert Assist, it means TurboTax has determined that’s the plan they want you to use for your situation. You’re not “obligated” to talk to an expert, but you are locked into paying for that tier. I DO NOT WANT EXPERT ASSIST. There is no way around it. Anyone else have a problem with being funneled into this? It does say start for free, but I don't want to select expert assist regardless.
