Can anyone think of why all portable air conditioning units come with an air intake hose? I mean why would I hook up air conditioning only to haul in hot outside air?

You need fresh air if you fart a lot.

The hose is needed to exhaust the hot air, same as what is happening
to the part sticking out the window on a regular unit.

Nope, if you follow the OP's other thread, you'll note he uses the
words "hoses".

It appears he bought a dual hose AC that does indeed have an intake
hose.
