Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry?

They’re some pricey cables that have claim to fame because of the high tech geometry used in their cables.
Many of these cables have patents on specific geometry patterns used in their cables and use this as a reason their cables sound so good. For that reason, many say the reason their cables cost so much is they’re so complex . The man hours to make a pr results in their high price. That maybe true for some cables, but I’ve seen very pricey cables using the same geometry reason that look like a thin piece of wire rapped in outer jacket no thicker than a pencil. So,Is all this geometry just another way to justify their cost or is it true science that we are paying in the end?

Please excuse my obvious lack of electrical engineering or math; can someone please give answers to below:
1.  The discussions above re inductance and capacitance, does this cable suitability refer to speaker cables only or does it include Inter Connects. Please elaborate differences if they exist and how.
2.   I have the lower end Kimber Select (all copper)ICs in my system, linking Plinius amp to pre and linking Oppo 95 to pre. Is it my ear that will tell if I jump to Analysis Plus Apex Silver, that this was a good spend to upgrade my musical experience?
Thanks A
