Not really the reason. all windows made by all the big & small name manufacturers must have a Fl product code approved by the state.
It is for hurricane resistance ie; wind
not heat/humidly.

Our windows are metal sliders and they've worked well so far.

metal loses heat in the winter gains heat in the summer, you may think they work well but if built out of wood or fiberglass they would work significantly better. that's a fact.
The contractors around here use alum because of speed and high profit, not because their better.
