Salt isn't so much a case of different flavours but of different uses. Like how you'd use rock salt on an icy path, it's better to use maldon salt to garnish a salad and you'd chuck fine sea salt on a soup base. If you think MSG tastes like table salt, though, it's time to hand your tongue in at the front desk. You can also get smoked salt and that kind of carry on.
you have a good point with "use" as a differentiator.
this is similar to buying non-potable water vs potable, with pretty much the potable water being more expensive.
I think it's within reasonable bounds because the extra cost comes from the added iodine or the minute minerals in maldon to add the extra taste.
Or cleaning vinegar vs. malt vinegar vs. balsamic vinegar.
