That particular joint is so close to the center of the hub it takes very little wear to cause big problems.

1mm of motion translates to over 1° of toe/camber and we are aiming for values in the 1/20th of a degree.

The ball joint at the bottom will wear out and cause similar headaches but as that one wears the problems are more subtle as the preload from the spring holds it tight one way mostly.
