They could, but that would be more expensive and require some fans etc.
Different parts of your frig will be a few degrees different normally. You
can use this to your advantage and allow the butter to stay a a little
softer. If the setting showed degrees, think of all the problems they would
have when people put a thermometer in a different part and it was a few
degrees different.

Take a good thermometer and move it around your home. You will find
that there are cooler and warmer places. My second floor is usually several
degrees warmer than the down stare and five or more degrees difference in
different rooms different parts of the day is not unusual.
