GFCI Required on refrigerator?

I suppose next we will have to GFCI/AFCI the toilet and bath tub

No just have them bonded, that way you can blow dry your hair while taking the shower (multitasking) (justayokeman). I know let's make a whole body dryer like they have in the car wash. Done showering; just push a button and multi directional air nozzles come on while you're still standing there and blow dry you. That might need GFCI in the shower.
But seriously I've seen a surge of bidets being installed, and I've seen some that list as having warm air dryers, that might qualify as needing a GFCI on the toilet (or toilet receptacle).

Kind of already do, if they would happen to have a cord and plug and are located in a NEC defined bathroom.

NEC Residential should really take a look at monitoring the frequency

Frequency of what?

It seems the "outlet" is what always leads down the GFI path.

Just hard wire more.

I think you mean the "receptacle".

Not too many items that must have GFCI even if hardwired. Though 2020 NEC added a little more, particularly for outdoor items at dwellings.

I still have trouble considering anything other that a "receptacle" an "outlet".
