What happens to homemade vinegar heated to over 160F? fermentation

I made plum vinegar (after failing twice making wine vinegar, I'm super stoked to have a success with a fruit scrap vinegar - I used Bragg's as the mother after fermenting plums in water and sugar). Why does the internet tell me to not heat it over 160f (for pasteurization)? I don't want to pasteurize the whole batch but I do want to make some refrigerator pickles, for which I would normally pour boiling vinegar over the item to be pickled. Is there a reason I shouldn't boil my homemade vinegar?
