Vinegar or acetic acid is very useful in storing combs and disinfecting nosema c and a spores. (Glacial acetic acidv95%)
As to syrup usage questionable
A better choice to lower ph is malic or ascorbic acids.
Very high in potassium vinegar is not highly regarded by bees and the smell makes em pissy around here.
Potassium can be good but winter feed needs to be ultra clean so less need for cleansing flights.
