Oil Filter Technology

I was just wondering how many folks get really picky about which oil filter they use ? I worked at a late model stock engine shop for a long time and the boss wanted filters that weren't overly restrictive as far as microns filtered. His thought was basically anything that filtered down to lets say 5 microns, would be too restrictive on oil flow. I'm curious to see what others say here.
