Because there aren’t a lot of inhabited places that stay around ~5-7°C all day, every day, all year, so there’s not exactly a big market for “wall mounted” fridges. If it gets much colder than that, your fridge has suddenly turned into a freezer, which isn’t ideal, and if it gets much warmer then obviously your fridge just isn’t anymore. It’ll also adversly affect the insulation of the house.
