That is, if you buy a bottle of EVOO and like it, does it really matter?
Or is the quality of olive oil some near-religious issue?

You know, I need to go back and re-listen to that audiobook. I am fuzzy, now, on the advantages of olive oil over other kinds of oil, and extra-virgin over plain virgin, just to be honest. But I will say, that the author convinced me that I needed the real thing, with whatever his arguments were.
