Same question? Is it a good idea to skip on the thermistor and other sensors if they test good? Costs on parts are going up, and the customer is more likely to take the repair if I quote just the heater.

As to how long the thermostat lasts: Theoretically,  it should last a long time, since it not supposed to cycle.  But theydo sell the assembly which includes it. I always go assembly on Samsungs. @Samurai Appliance Repair Man advice from way  back.
