I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

But you’re still not going to get appreciably different performance or longevity from a $50 USB-C cable than from a $10 USB-C cable.
And I recognize that it’s not exactly the same thing, but as a decent rule of thumb, if the company is willing to actually build the thing in spec, they’re probably doing a good enough job that it’s going to last a reasonable amount of time, so the spec is still useful for that purpose. To wit: I’ve never had an in-spec USB-C cable or connector fail.
I have, but your probably right in the general.
Most recently, I had a plug housing (aluminium) seperate from the guts when I tugged on it. It’s not like it happens frequently; Apple lightning cables are far more fragile, but that’s probably by design.
