WHERE IS THE RISK
Do you mean of running the cables along the wall.
If you drilled through the wall to fit a socket back to back like you said, there would be no problem as the cable would be safe, but when running along buried within the wall it could be hit by someone drilling to put up shelves pictures etc.
If run vert or horiz, from an accesory, hopefully this area will be safe, but not always the case.
This is the only reason, for protection of the cable from nails etc
Personally think the 150mm from ceiling most likely to be hit by putting up coving, but this requires no protection.
