I suspect, from past conversations, that some of it is that when you design a house to be used without screens, then retrofitting screens isn’t optimal. Like, say you have a window of X area. The screen blocks, say, 30% of light that would go through. If you then put a screen on the window, then you have only 70% of the light that you normally would. That may well be darker than you want. If you design a house with the intention of screen use and want light from windows, you’re going to make the windows 130% the area you normally would.
Don’t know what you are rambling about. I have very normal windows in my European home and installed bug screens without any problems or disadvantages. There’s no trouble with light or air.
That dude or dudette has no idea what they’re talking about. Bug screens are even being sold for small change at the discounters, especially in spring, and year round at the hardware stores. If someone over here has no bug screens they are as dumb as that post you cited. Idiots are everywhere.

That creates some inertia.
