Because it's difficult. How do you solve for this problem in a house without internal ducting in temperature extremes throughout the year?

I'm curious, how long has ventilation ducting been part of housing codes, in other words how old are houses that have that problem?

Many (most?) houses in the north/north-east do not have ducts. It's very rare for me personally to come across central air in the NY area.
