The ultimate decision is yours, not the shop
Case in point
I just had a torn CV boot and my mechanic gave me 3 options
1- replace the boot and rebuild the CV
2 - replace the axle with an aftermarket one
3 - replace the axle with a factory one
He gave me the costs ans well as the pros and cons of each choice and I decided on how I would spend my $$

No, your whole assumption is that he went to a good shop. If so, then yeah, those things apply. The shop still did install a LN bearing as instructed. It just didn't act as a good shop in good faith to ask him if he wanted the pro bearing installed.
