This.
I used metal, (copper for water), but PEX is fine.
He may have a point about cure times, but the cracks are more likely the the result of poor compaction.

No. Probably just surface cracks that the guy is overreacting about. Every slab is going to get them to some degree. They aren't an issue unless you can see them spreading and the rule of thumb is if you can fit a quarter in them then have it looked at. As far as cure times you can add accelerator in the winter and retardant in the summer so you get the proper cure time. Slabs now days are safe to start building on the next day. There is a lot more engineering in concrete these days than there used to be.
