Suppose you got arrested and thrown in jail with violent criminals and fired from your job for a glass of wine or bottle of beer that you consumed a week ago.

Well that could never happen because alcohol is water-soluble, so it is not detectable in a blood test after 24 hours.
However, marijuana is fat soluble so it can show up on a blood test more than a week after consumption — long after its effects have worn off.
That is why Proposition 19 was written the way it was.
