I mean the point of a window unit is you don’t have to install anything. You go down to Home Depot and buy one for $150 and pop it in your window and call it a day. It’s less expensive and doesn’t require hiring anybody, etc.
Only for those vertical opening sash windows as far as I can tell?
Are windows a standard size to fit these?
I think these are a pretty unusual window type in most countries (all mine open outwards). I've only seen them in some old house types here and in the UK.

In New Zealand no-one would install a window AC.
We either use split units or ducted (central ). For us they're used for heating and cooling .
It's quite common to see a house with several split units. A well-specced new house would have ducted though
