I am going to step on dangerous ground here and cite a modern example to compare to an ancient practice. IF segmentata were
painted at some point it does not mean that they were WORN painted. It may just be a shipment/storage and preservation method as if in the future someone tried to argue that military rifles of the 20th century went into battle coated with cosmoline.
