True, ironwoods, teak etc are expensive but do last without treatment. They can go a dull grey/green colour but form own protective layer.
When my brother-in-law put our deck in we would have liked to use ironwoods, we had the money for the timber but not for the tools needed to work them. As it was the deck grew from a small stand about half width of house to something all round the backside of house and round the side to back door, no step up/down. There are thousands of screws holding it together and the planks are all offset so easier to replace one and they don't all move at same rate.
