The latter image of the 2 above is mine and it was not done in a benchmark environment (had light tasks running in the background)
Compare that to the Samsung 9100 Pro 2TB:

Yeah sequential performance is higher but random write performance is lower.
Overall it's a faster drive but you have to consider that most of that is coming from sequential performance that will mean nothing to the vast majority of users. As I pointed out earlier, even for the niche use cases where that sequential speed is helpful, the endurance becomes an issue. This is why I use my P5800X for AI training and not my WD Blacks or T700. In terms of meaningful improvement for end users, there's little to be had by paying the Samsung tax here.
I'm looking at German Amazon pricing and it seems to only be a tad higher:

US pricing doesn't include tax so it might be a wash.
I guess it depends on which country you are in, spain pricing looks high.
I'd agree but with the qualifier "for most people". To some professionals who do video or AI work it might be worth it to buy these. For everyone else there is zero difference.
Now optane on the other hand is a whole different bag, at least when it comes to the P5800X. I compared the P5800X to the T700 and it was noticeably more responsive.
