Why isn’t surge protection built into the house wiring?

Mad dad asked:
If electricians already know there is a chance for power surges, why don’t they put in some standard type of surge protector right at the circuit breaker box, so all the electricity coming into the house is the same?? Wouldn’t this make more sense than having to buy multiple surge protectors for every outlet and/or device in the house?
