The interior volume of the freezer part of a standard fridge might be
around 50L, which would make the air mass inside around 60 grams.  So
even if all the cold air escapes instantly, that's fairly little heat
getting in, compared to the heat capacity of the other stuff in the
freezer, i.e. around 4 kg of ice in the case of my experiment with the
pot full of water.  The fridge part might be more like 200L so I'd agree
that the heat entering from opening the door several times a day could
be substantial.

It still seems to me that better insulation around the freezer would
help.  When I did the thing with the pot of water, I checked on it maybe
1x-2x day, not so much in the scheme of things.  The heat was getting in
through the insulation, not from opening the door.
