Why are so many fuel filters so expensive?

I have been doing maintenance on my motorcycle for years. I’m used to the $2-5 inline fuel filters, which I also had on my first couple cars. But now I’m trying to diagnose a misfire issue on my Honda Civic (97 EX) and the fuel filter is the next thing to check. I was surprised to see that even the cheapest available that are specified for this application are $20. Most brands are closer to $50. What in the world is this filter doing that a $5 filter doesn’t? Can’t be the fuel flow because I’ve seen plenty of gas hog V8s that use simple inline filters, while my gas-sipping Civic needs something special. I also wouldn’t think the filtration is that much different. I mean, it’s fuel, not oil or drinking water. There’s a prefilter in the fuel tank for the really ugly crap, then this one for the fine stuff.
