It's not the price difference, it's the principle.

I'm no expert, so please correct me if I don't understand this
correctly. I understood that 15 Amp outlets are all rated for 20 Amps.
The 20 Amp outlets have that T slot that will allow for devices that
can draw more than 15 amps to be plugged in. Hence you cannot use
20Amp outlets in a 15 amp circuit, but 15 amp in 20 amp circuits are
alright.
