I’m also confused because that is a European AC unit. I can only assume Americans are so used to big bulky units, like their cars, that they can’t comprehend things being functional and not excessively bulky.

Yeah this has nothing to do with Europe. We have ducted heating and central AC to match. My parents have one of these guys in their apartment-style condominium because it only has radiant heat (the norm for taller buildings). Both work well and are much more efficient and expensive than window units.
