Do people really buy pans for just eggs though? I've always used my regular pans for cooking eggs and if I'm storing them in my home I'd want them to cook more than just eggs.

This is horrible advice. Cheap nonstick flakes nasty teflon chemicals into your food. Shitty advice
Cheap nonstick flakes nasty teflon chemicals into your food.
All Teflon coatings will degrade if abused. Getting expensive nonstick just makes you want to use it longer than you should (sunk cost), and abuse it because it's "more durable".
So get a cheap T-fal, be very careful with it, always handwash, never use metal utensils, dispose if damaged at all, and only use for eggs.
Lastly, If you can't use a nonstick pan carefully every time, just don't use nonstick at all.
