They already have to have AC available for the higher trim levels. It makes more sense for the manufacturer to slap the system they already have into the lower trim levels than to engineer a system of vents and controls for the lower trim levels because that'll never pay for itself. If it were an "eco" feature that they could charge extra for, then it probably still wouldn't make sense to build.
Weight reduction still makes a lot of sense around town. Doesn't every 100 pounds use 15 hp? With stop & go, you're accelerating all that weight all the time.
