Single part mono urethane Epifanes paint.. quesiton ,, thoughts

Goofing on line, looking at paint jobs. The pro Awlgrip jobs are the
best, it seems. That said, in my opinion, spending $5,000 dollars on
a topside paint job is kinda nuts. My opinion, just me. I have a friend who
did his topsides with the one part Epifanes monourethane. He rolled, and
tipped off. Yes, it is not as hard, or durable, or absolutely stunning as an
Awlgrip job, but I'm telling you, it looked real nice. Only cost him a few hundred for the whole process. He cleaned, degreased, wiped, sanded old paint. He rolled on two coats of primer, sanded after each coat. One finish coat, roll and tip. From 10 feet away, it looks sprayed on.

Am I missing something?

Thanks
