That is a very good question, that had not occurred to me.
If the plates were glued to the drywall, it would certainly improve conduction. Construction adhesive, or some kind of tile mastic seems like it would be a winner.
The only issue I can imagine is unequal thermal expansion.
There was another slide that showed the application of glue with a small paint roller, to the
backside of the spreader plates.
I don't recall the audio mentioning anything about the fact that glue was being used, or what kind of glue it was.
If you actually use this technique, be sure and report back your experience.
This is a two-way street.
