The lack of auto filing is not the core issue with our tax code. The ridiculous complexity is. I want auto filing but the tax code could be drastically simplified without the government directly competing with TurboTax.

Elsewhere in one of their filings, it also says "Simplification of the tax code."

I'm totally fine blaming them.

If they're legitimately lobbying for a complex tax code, then yeah, they deserve part of the blame.
