I have to take a wild guess here, but I imagine that has to do with distribution. For example, the "fl" package is geared towards Flash CS3 because of the timeline/keyframe related classes, that package isn't available in Flex Builder by default but if you have Flash CS3 installed then you can point Flex Builder at those classes. The "flash" package contains generic classes such as Sprite that can be used in both Flash CS3 and Flex Builder. Also, you will notice specific packages that are only available if you are creating a SWF file for AIR ( "flash.desktop" and "flash.filesystem" for example ).
