But you'd buy a carbide blade for a table saw ?

Absofrigginloutlely!

Table saw blades are easy to get sharpened. Band saw blades are not
only a pain to get sharpened, but they break, get kinked, etc... I
get plenty of use out of a $10 blade, where I don't mind tossing it
when I'm done.

The cut quality of carbide BS blades that I've seen does not seem to
be all that better than a plain steel version. Carbide table saw
blades cut better from day one, and keep going and going.
