That said, if you compare two filter/softener systems with the same specs, why does one cost dramatically more than the other in many cases? Maybe the warrenty?

The first problem is that you are an engineer, trained to be bound by the laws physics, chemistry, and few other immutable rules set by mother nature.
so are my brothers and my dad. . . they all struggle with behavioral finance as well. ..
So you are looking at your problem from a linear, laws understanding, and humans and behavioral economics doesn't fit into that paradigm, at all. The reason could be unrelated to cost or quality or warranty.
At the end of the analysis, which would you buy and how much do you want to spend for someone else to install or install it yourself. . . that's it. The price differential is what it is. .
not being critical, just seen the tendency of many engineers struggle with that and very similar issues. .
