I've come to the conclusion of, "For the most part, no."
Find a filter that has a construction quality that you like and features that work for you.
If you want the silicon ADBV, then buy that. However, I've come to the conclusion that amount of media is more important than filtering of media. The logic is this; A more restrictive media will go into bypass longer. The way to solve that is to stuff more media in (purolator does this). Or you can skimp on the media and strain out the stuff made during the few bypassed sessions (Mobil 1 tends to do this. They filter well, but they skimp on the amount of media put in).
The champ made k&N filter has a lot of flow and a lot of media. Now, this is designed for higher RPM driving and constant filtering while maintaining flow. To me, that says something.
So my rule of thumb of oil filters is, maximum overall flow. I want as much of that oil as possible to go through that filter, rather than have as much as possible filtered out on every 5 or so passes.
For my Nissan, I will only use Supertech/Valuecraft (The cheapie autozone filter). They are both the cheapie Champion filter with decent media and the "crappy" bypass. My nissan's engine has a internal bypass that it uses, so I don't need to worry about that. I believe the nissan filters don't even use a bypass in them. I oversize to the ST8a size instead of the st3682
For my Honda, I use Purolator/Proline. I have a car that specs for the larger filter, so I really can't oversize (but I go out of my way to look for the largest size, which is the 24458 (I think if my memory is correct))
Both these filters have a good amount of media and quality construction.
I will also state the Fram fails both criteria. The always contested build quality is the subjective one that I don't like (Easy to break, extremely inconsistant amount of filtering media). However, the quantitive one you can't argue with is overall flow when not in bypass. Fram picks a good media that filters fairly well. However, it doesn't flow well at all and they put a minimal amount of media in their filter. This disagrees with my uneducated opinions on what a filter is, so I avoid them like a plauge.
