Default Control Arm Question

I'm pretty sure my driver's side left lower control arm is done. My question is do you have to replace both and if so why? Or is that just a way for dealers to get you to spend more money?

Default my dealer did one at a time...

back at around 70K one went.

But you can probably do it for less outside of a dealer. I recently had all the control arms, all tire rod ends etc done for $1400.00

No reason to replace both unless both are bad of course.
