One of the vet sites does specifically mention that "Young cats and kittens under one year of age, and cats with compromised immune systems are more susceptible to FELV."
 
FIV is "immunodefiency syndrome" thus plopping them right directly into that "compromised immune system" category that's more susceptible to FELV.
 
Mind you, even the vet sites are often full of shit as far as having solid research to back up their statements and policy. (I think this was the Cornell site)
