Because, unlike the immaculate conception and perpetual virginity, it is clearly and explicitly documented in the Gospels (thanks be to God for giving us His scripture through the Apostles, and for giving the early church fathers the wisdom for recognizing them as such).
You didn’t answer the question for all your verbosity.
And Isaiah 7:14 has NOTHING to do with the PERPETUAL virginity of Mary.
Dang!
