Yeah, a lot of things above might be true.
However until a while ago there use to be mainly two category of PSUs.
Cheappos that went for around $20 (or even less), and normal PSUs that went fo around $40 to $50.
Few years ago a 3rd category was added "Fancy".
I thing that the Vendors of the New Category did a very skill full job in shilling a feeling that whatever was regular ($0-$50) working well PSU is Now "Trash".
Well the fact is that in most cases "Fancy" PSU is not really needed, and most computers will do very well with what use to be considered regular PSU for around $50.
