Misunderstood... Yes, if cost is an issue, replace with a factory bearing and plan for maintenance. Or, since you are there, consider the $$ for the one and done. The IMS “discussion” really has become the proverbial oil thread. There are several options and price points. I think it simply boils down to which you feel the most comfortable with across the board. Overall, in terms of replacing it or not, it’s a bearing, and bearings fail. Do it while you are there.
