If wireless (inherently lower quality sound) & ANC (the best are admittedly, on Bose) are your ONLY concerns; placed far beyond actual "stellar sound", then yes- Bose is right for you, in that niche.
If you are looking for a set of headphones that are "twice as good" (in this instance meaning: SOUND twice as good), for half the price- I'd say, the Grado SR225 absolutely 100% sound twice as good as a $350 pair of Bose; and are around $175. They have wires though.... to send that sweet, sweet, oh-so-dreamy sound through, so I guess you wouldn't be interested. =/
Also... while everyone certainly may have specific cases that require specific products.
You can probably stow the "recording engineers you hang out with" anecdotes, lol. That type of incredulous story does NOT make your point seem stronger; to the contrary... drumming up sources that can't be confirmed smacks more of desperation & is a bit sad.
Well, in point of fact I DO have friend that are audio engineers, though only one of them has worked on anything you are likely to have heard - to be fair. I've spent a fair bit of time in and around bands (though again, not ones you are likely to have heard of - we never got famous).
To the point of "twice as good" - again, by what metric? How do you MEASURE twice as good?

All you can offer is "I like mine better, so its twice as good. I will dismiss this other stuff and blame it on your tinny ears and low expectations (because insulting your standards make me look refined - the wine snob debate method)."
Sound quality is subjective. Period. Full stop.
If I like ridiculously over-pumped bass, then that sounds better to me. If I like crisp highs, then that sounds better to me. If I like incredibly flat EQ and a distinct pop 33 1/3 times a minute, then that sounds good to me.
The goal is not and never was to make it sound "just like when they recorded it." If it was, why reverb, for example. (and if that is your ONLY concern, the only answer is to see a concert whenever you want to listen to music, so practical applications are a problem for everyone.)
Now I have many things I like to do with headphones, including using them in noisy environments, so noise cancellation was a checkbox. I also found that I kept snagging on the wires of my previous headphones, so I wanted wireless. I must have odd shaped inner ears because I can't keep buds in, so over ears became a point. I wanted good sound quality (not absolute perfect sound, and not as flat as studio monitors). In this regard, the QC35 are outstanding. If I were looking to master an album, the Bose QC35 (along with most other headphones that were designed as studio monitors) would be a poor choice.
I listen to music from my phone, mostly - so 256K mp3s are pretty common. If I had that super duper Neil Young media player listening to lossless files, sound reproduction would matter more. If I listened in a really quiet room while doing nothing else, I might not worry about wireless noise cancelling cans. Even then, I am NOT one of my audio engineer friends and I can't tell the wood a guitar is made of by the sound it makes. I can, however, hear all kinds of nuances in these headphones and enjoy them.
If you are listening to a compressed MP3 while in a noisy environment (kids, inside the car, mowing the lawn, working out at the gym), then bragging about the absolute fidelity of your headphones is like bragging how fast your school bus is on a mud track because you have a pro driver. One great component does not make a great system.
