I agree. One thought that occurred to me was that the alcohol could evaporate, leaving some water behind. The water could allow airborne bacteria to grow.
On the other hand, I've never "sanitized" my water systems and never had a problem in over 40 years of boating and RVing. I do flush my tanks with water from a municipal water system that has chlorine, and keep chlorinated water in the tanks. I've never added chlorine, although I have both short (shock) and long life chlorine that I use in our pool. It just isn't a problem.
