I am only going on my 2 frames that i had powder coated. I'm not an expert and i posed my comment as a question more that a statement. I just found that it chipped fairly easy if you caught a edge, and yes i touched it up but the powder is thicker so it didn't look great touched up. So I don't think its 10X less likely, and i have done many many bikes over years so i'm not new to restoring/customizing bikes. But i do see a lot of advantages to powder also.
