    With all the horror stories I heard about issues with leaking pipes or faulty electrical circuits requiring ceilings and walls to be torn down, the real question is why we don’t do all the ceilings and walls like that.

      This is rhe same reason I will never buy a house on slab: gotta hammer up the floor, fix, repour and refloor if you ever need those pipes down below.

      Drywall is so cheap and easy, and leaks and failures so infrequent it doesn’t make sense to have “easy access” to the interior of walls. Drywall is the easy access.
