Hand troweling vs. power troweling for garage floors - my take

I did two slabs last week in Toledo. Same mix, same weather. One I finished by hand, the other I ran the power trowel over. The hand troweled one came out way denser. Less dusting. The power trowel one looked good at first. But after three days the surface felt softer. I think power trowels burn the cream too fast. Am I crazy or does hand work still beat machines for durability? Anyone else notice this on their flatwork jobs?
