When comparing design loads of different architectural design variables, I manually calculate the heating and cooling design loads and post process the comparison. This is a valuable comparison for the project CAPEX, where smaller equipment sizes are cheaper.
you could also setup the alternatives and manually run the simulations (simulatenously) and then compare the component sizing reports. That might be more efficient.
