You can pair a "traditional north American" type of air handler with the condenser. No need for one head per room if you have the ductwork. (1) I can't compare

You can pair a "traditional north American" type of air handler with the condenser. No need for one head per room if you have the ductwork. (1) I can't compare from experience on baseboard heating.
I'd say that with the hyper heat and appropriate wind baffles, you can remove the resistive aux heat in most of the lower 48. Consult your ASHRAE design conditions for specifics. (2)
I share your concerns however, about not having anything but electric heat. I think of the water pipes in Texas houses bursting as the electric grid failed and the temperature dropped to the kind of conditions seen in a fairly normal northeast winter.
