I don’t think you can generalize quite that much - on buildings in heating-dominated climates, low-e windows and their accompanying low SHGC result in rejected solar energy that could otherwise be used to heat the home by day. Without proper shading, overheating can be a concern in fall and spring for south and west facing windows but in my understanding north facing glazing shouldn’t be low-e in any heating dominated climate.
