It has nothing to do with how "good" or "bad" the stainless is or how "cheap" or not the stainless is, it has to do with what properties and applications the steel has been designed for.

The applications the ss was designed for, is directly related to good or bad,...or cheap or expensive ss. Therefore it certainly does have to do w/ how good or bad or cheap it is. Food grade ss does not rust, (rust is corrosion) and I believe is the most expensive.
