Because of the nature of the acids. The vinegar and juices have light metals in them, like potassium, calcium and so forth that alkalinize. That acidic portion is an organic acid, and breaks down into water and carbon dioxide, so it has no effect on the body's balance.
The acid in DW or CS would be carbonic acid, which also breaks down into water and carbon dioxide, leaving water or water and silver behind. There is no other solute to cause alkalization. You have to look at only the inorganic acids and bases to determine what the effect will be on the body.
