How much eye relief is "good"? Do you wear glasses? Is there going to be a specific telescope that will be the main recipient of the particular eyepiece? Are you after a 1.25 or 2 inch diameter eyepiece?

Sometimes matching the telescope to the selection creates more leeway. A long focal ratio telescope is a lot more forgiving when it comes to using cheap widefields.

There is no way for anyone to prove whatever selection is "best".
