Different sugars affect properties like texture and moisture retention differently, and aren't equivalently sweet.

  Do you have a concrete example for the moisture retention case?

    Cookies? Swap brown for white in a recipe and you'll wind up with a wildly different product, and they're 95% the same (white is almost pure sucrose, brown has a small amount of fructose and other traces). Syrups contain quite a bit of water, and differ a bunch in constituent sugars.
