Are premium wireless headsets like the Astro A50 worth $250+?

Tom's Hardware explicitly says the Astro A50 X is 'comfortable, great-sounding... but you probably don't need it unless you have multiple consoles.' The base-station multi-platform switching is the differentiator. For single-platform players, mid-range options like the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 deliver most of the audio quality at half the price.
