Nothing in that addendum legally compels the seller to fix anything

Good grief, now I have to explain what an addendum is. No, I won't be a
teacher here. Read the top, let it soak in. Then read the entire addendum,
not what you just want to read. Maybe pay particular attention to item 6,
now you have to know what REPC is, well I do, and you apparently do not.

The didn't start fixing stuff on their own, obviously after going through
offers/counter offers, then acceptance, they started their painting.

I don't know *** about FHA, haven't read the links, and don't want to,
but until someone says why the seller can't just *walk away from the
sale,* I'm going to have to side with the salted dog here.

Did the seller actually sign something that says he *WILL* fix the paint
issue, or did he only sign something that says he *WILL* fix the paint
issue *IF* he wants the sale to close? There's a world of difference
between the two.
