Is there a reason this is not called out directly in Turbo Tax like some of the other state programs?

I don't know what TurboTax's reason is. I don't have any inside information. My guess is that it's basically inertia. The general category has always been there. When only a few states had family leave it was something novel, and they added an individual entry for each state to the list. When it became a lot of states, they stopped adding individual states, but they left the early ones in the list. They could remove the few individual states that are in the list, then no states would be "called out" individually. The list would be much too long if they listed every state individually, so they're not going to do that. But as I said, this is just my guess.
