It’s something that I often wondered. Acetone, even diluted as nail polish remover, does a great job of cleaning prints and, unlike IPA, doesn’t leave the piece with an awful smell.
Is it mainly price, or are there other reasons?

The denatured alcohol you typically find in the the US contains a lot of methanol. It’s much more toxic than IPA.
Methanol is only a bigger issue if you drink it…unless you were drinking your isopropyl alcohol that’s not a very big concern.
You can absorb it via the skin too.
