I can somewhat understand their reluctance to warranty a repacked axle after who knows what has got inside through the torn boot. However, I've repacked/rebooted probably a dozen axles on various cars and any damage to the balls, cage, and races is pretty easy to see. If there are any defects then of course the joint or axle should be replaced. If they have a quality parts washer then there should only be 2 hours actual work or there abouts to disassemble, clean, repack and boot the axle. I guess it comes down to your willingness to gamble. Worst case, you are out the cost of the r&r and repack if it fails and you have to install a new axle.
