Because more rooms come with doors and windows than without. If everyone lived in their mom's basement with no windows they probably would not exist.
I have to be honest though, I have been in a lot of basements [own a house with one] and can't ever recall going into one that did not have windows. That sounds more like a cellar.
I have a portable I picked up from Sly a few years ago and I think it is better than any window unit I have seen / used. You just run the exhaust tube out the window. It probably comes with a piece that fills the gap from opening the window.
