With just about everything anymore there will be those that always recommend top of the line or you need something better but I have found that not always true. There is extreme fishing for large species that can and will wear out and even break low end gear first go round but that is not something I am often doing. Much of that is a status thing in my opinion and you will see it in any sport or activity. As a newcomer it is more important to hone your skill versus your gear and we do not give peewee league $600 major league bats for that reason. You can't buy a bike anyomer without every telling you you need Olympic class equipment. That is very prevalent her on SD and in the popular culture. I think that dissuades so many from getting into some outdoor, life changing and life improving activity and that it is crime against humanity. Poor kids can't just get a Walmart bike as the rich kids are going to be mocking them and telling how much their stuff is better. People wonder why so many kids and adults are broken, out of shape and unhappy.
I only recently(in my 50s) have bought a little more expensive gear as I invested money not in fishing rods and have a little more now and yes they are a bit nicer but I am still well into very reasonably priced when catching them on sale, often here on SD.
The majority of my reals are Okumas and some are going on twenty years old most were had for $15 - $30. Most of my rods are budget with a few nice ones mixed in that I caught cheap. One of my favorite setups is Shakespeare Microlite paired with a Okuma 15 reel and I think the whole setup was under $30. I even have and do use that setups in the Chesapeake and its tributaries and in the coastal tributaries for things like white perch.
Do not ignore the smaller species and I absolutely love casting for and catching white perch on light gear, it is blast, they taste great and they are plentiful. If you find a school you can fish with just a jig head and softbaits or even small bass style crankbaits and have hours of fun plus dinner. I always carry a rig for that in case the rockfish are not biting.
With a rise afterward almost all my chep gear has been going for many years. If one fails I grab another when I see something reasonable. I will say resist the urge to buy combos unless you know that both the rod and real to be of decent quality. I find that sometimes and maybe most times they will give you a decent rod but terrible reel. I put almost all me cheap combos together separately and many are no more than $60 and some as low as $30.
I have had Okumas sunk in the Chesapeake for some good period of time. I retrieved it and did not even take it apart and it still works after a squirt of some lubricant, little rougher than it was before but still going. In contrast in a fishing forum I saw a man whose $450 reel was completely locked up and ruined with one dunk and the manufacturer was fighting warranty coverage.
I don't carp fish, so not sure if this reel would be applicable, but that could be one target species for a small bait feeder.
Also, probably not for the trout I see in eastern pa in stocked streams, but I suppose this could be for larger lake trout or salmon.
But only 6# of drag.
I have no purpose for this reel, but Okuma isn't the only one that makes them, so their must be a market somewhere, maybe it's more outside the US these small BF have more of a purpose.
Also, I don't see why you couldn't use this reel for FW bass fishing with live bait (sunnies, minnows).
Definitely watch the Skinner videos he is always in the surf or bayside and does what you are interested in and does not always use real big and heavy gear
If you take to it I would advise to maybe think about kayak fishing. It opens up a big world of opportunity especially in a coastal area like where you are and gets you off crowded beaches

My confusion is how to buy "cheaper" gear because as you said, your cheap stuff has been going many years. But I'm certain there are some cheap stuff you stay away from. I need help differentiating between those

But even in surfcasting you have to figure out what you preference is. Some people bait fish and priority is getting the lure out as far as possible where the monsters are and that can get you into very heavy and stiff long rods and very big reeIs. That will not cast lures for you very well or at all.
My biggest surf setup is 9' and I even have fished with a 7' and I am happy with that as I primarily fish lures when surfcasting. The 9" does on occasion cast bait and I am happy with the distance i get. I did have larger surfcasting rigs for casting bait but just did not enjoy that type of fishing as much and when a rod broke I just never replaced it. If you do buy that kind of setup it will limit yourself in many ways to only fishing one way. You will not be able to throw and feel smaller lures with rod designed for heavy weight and bait
Definitely watch the Skinner videos as he fishes various ways and might be able to help you decide on how you want to fish.
You can also use a lube kit from amazon periodically to keep it better protected and replenish the internal grease/lube on the gears to keep it from seizing up and you should be good to go.
