You spit out mouth wash after rinsing because you can’t drink mouth wash. But sugary water is something you can drink.

Yeah I don't necessarily spit it out. It's getting it off of your teeth that is the important thing.

Your stomach is already full of whatever it is you just ate. 0.1% more from whatever remains in your mouth is not going to hurt it.
