I don't think there is any question that somebody who gets good homeownership counseling, either pre-ownership, or in some cases post-ownership--it makes them better borrowers.

This is in line with my consistently repeated belief that it is the role of Congress, not FHFA, to decide on housing finance reform.

I am wondering, if you think this is redundant and extraneous rather than contrary to the intent, why wouldn't we just accept the amendment and keep going?

unequivocally . . . it is the role of Congress, not FHFA, to make the decisions that chart the path out of conservatorship and to the future housing finance system.
