The formula for the de_deduction_indv variable does not correspond to what the form instructions say (namely that married filing separately must make the same itemization decision):

class de_deduction_indv(Variable):
value_type = float
entity = Person
label = "Delaware deduction when married couples are filing separately"
unit = USD
definition_period = YEAR
reference = "https://delcode.delaware.gov/title30/c011/sc02/index.html title 30, chapter 11, subchapter II, section 1108"
defined_for = StateCode.DE
def formula(person, period, parameters):
itemized = person("de_itemized_deductions_indv", period)
standard = person("de_standard_deduction_indv", period)
return max_(itemized, standard)
