The 'inexpensive' 'nano' or 'ceramic' coats done by detailers are rarely applied correctly, it's more a 'fad' than anything. Now a good job does stay for a while, but they are in the 800-1200 range, which is not cost effective.

On a brand new car, that you want to be low-maintenance, it's not a bad idea. You can use 'hybrid' or combo stuff, like wash & nano, or other hybrid waxes. That's fine, but on a 'real' paint job, an above-standard paint job, you really don't want to do that crap. You need to let it breathe, wax with a pure wax or +wax with natural oils (depending on paint type), twice a year doing a cleaner/polish wax, maybe clay bar every 2-3 years.

If you look at collector grade cars, no one uses 'coatings'. No free lunch.

UV and fall-out are the 2 big killers of paint jobs. If you drive it, wash it, maybe detail-wipe before you garage it, and follow a care schedule. It's really no-brainer.
