I have no idea what caused it and i did not replace it. a replacement is $100. I have not had any issues with it yet.

What's the downside of just leaving it there? Is the boot really important?

You can buy a generic replacement boot and cover it up. If left open tho, the grease will get contaminated with debris and eventually ruin the ball joint and make all kinds of fun noises.
