True. But for general use, as you said, it will mostly not be an issue. I have a kit from Harbor Freight that has been getting everything I need done perfectly - and that's for under $100 for a full kit of tools.
Also went cheap on my first torque wrench, about $30-40 on Amazon and has been used for just about everything that requires proper torque up to about 120 ft-lbs on the car.
The way I see it from there is if I need a specific tool to do a job that my standard tools can't do, I go get a good quality one - having saved plenty of money on all the general tools.
