It might be more efficient in terms of electricity, but wouldn't it be less efficient in terms of water usage? That's a big problem in draught-prone areas, and might result in even more energy usage in places which use desalination plants for water.

Water is cheap. A cool interior is priceless.

Edit:

even more energy usage in places which use desalination plants for water.

If you live in one of these areas then evaporative ac is available.
