There's nothing in the world saying the rest of ur injectors are gonna crap out,,, as long as u change ur oil faithfully. And watch ficm voltage, and have the blue spring, and have the 12mm stand pipes n plugs, and keep clean fuel filters, and drain ur separator.

U know if you've been relaxed with the maint,,, that would be my deciding factor for how many injectors to do.

Can you clarify por expand on the highlighted bit above for me

If it takes a 12 mm Allen to remove the stand pipe,,, I would just reuse them. 12mm is the updated ones. If its a 10mm Allen,,, Must replace.
