> The only thing is, it requires maintainance, which is why Portland cement has taken over the world.

What kind of maintenance and why did roman cement survive without it? Or are we simply looking at ancient survivorship bias where the surviving roman concrete structures survived through the lime cycle without maintenance until it was no longer required?
