Why not just go all in and shut off at breakers?

Breakers are not made for very frequent on/off cycles. They won't last as long as a light switch for instance. I've never seen a light switch wear out, but I have seen breakers wear out (at which point they trip very easily, and eventually seem to just permanently fail open).

Then don’t flip the fridge breaker.

Plenty places don't have a separate breaker for that.
