You're quite correct if it is a sidewalk or pavement.

all coatings fail and then you have a forever maintence issue


That may have been the case in 1950, but not in this century. Google
is your friend and some simple research will give you more insight on
concrete treatments. The industry has many proprietary systems widely
used in factories today that run heavy forklifts 24/7 with minimal
maintenance. Machine shops and repair shops commonly use epoxy paints
today almost universally. Of course heavy traffic will affect any
paint or even concrete but the cost of keeping a concrete floor clean
is far higher than a painted floor, especially with grease and oil
spills. If you have to pay the bills or do the work, then a nice
painted floor is a no-brainer.
