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.

Yep, even “efficiency” cores are a scam. They were forced to go that way because their current process simply can’t support all full cores without drawing 300W+ and taking too much space.
Cut down E-Cores aren’t even efficient power wise, just space efficient so they could fit them on the die.
Besides power consumption my trust for Intel is down the gutter with half a dozen security issues. Which were patched with performance degradation. So they fucked up, patched it in software, now your hardware runs slower than when you bought it.
