That is exactly right. PC can chip and scratch just like paint. It just takes more effort to do it. PC can be repaired, though. If you're careful (and a little lucky) you can use paint to match the color of the PC
Since anodizing is a stain and not a coating, it can't chip off or scratch off. But it you can scratch, gouge, or damage the base material enough to go through the color layer. When that happens, it cannot be repaired.
