Speaking as someone who lives in Germany, this is a common sentiment from old timey Germans that hasn't been true for awhile. It's far more than a week every year and it'll only get worse.
It's like the memory of the past is so strong it overwrites the present day experience. I think the truth of the matter is home ownership is so low that installing AC is never even considered by the owning class. Germans definitely have a culture of not needing AC and like superstitiously not liking them, but honestly California had similar beliefs when I lived there but they had just started to cave to the present reality. I think Germany is a decade behind on this matter and in 10 years 80% of the population will have AC and the last 20% will be the people whose landlords refuse to invest in their properties and blame it on the infrastructure not being built for AC.
Everyone should be installing heat pumps for winter, too. The ability to cool in the summer is basically a bonus, that they can run the system in reverse.
