I've been reading a Fair Labor Standards Act fact sheet. I don't understand why "Computer Employees" are classified differently from Professional employees. What is the justification for that difference?

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is a question about political motivation for a law, not the law itself.

@ohwilleke This question clearly belongs to law.stackexchange.com and should be moved back there. The question is about legislative intent (which is a matter of law, not a question about workplace), and the answer is obtained from reading both statutory language and case law.

@JoeStrazzere "I'm not sure that a "justification for a categorization within a law" has anything to do with the Workplace?" It has nothing to do with Workplace. Even if a legislative intent stemmed from politics (as most laws do), the fact that an answer is ascertained from statutory law and case law shows that law.stackexchange.com is the appropriate site for this question.

@JoeStrazzere Can it be restored back to law.stackexchange.com ? Users are much likelier to search in Law SE than here (or elsewhere) for answers to any questions about laws.
