I think most bows are overpriced, however you can see some bows really do show value in the engineering.
Hoyt's Tec riser and Bowtechs one piece CP risers, for example-def have far more into it cost wise, because of the size of the extrusion needed and the detailed machining that goes into such a riser.
On the other hand- there are a couple of manufacturers- big name ones- that are not progressing at all/have actually lessened component quality/design over the years (and called it improvement), and are charging the same premium prices.

I completely agree with all that

Hoyts new design with the ALphaMax is progress in the right direction imo, and bowtech the same.
