The sending unit is also the tank's top cover plate, which includes the terminals for all electrical and hoses going in and out. If you don't replace the sender, eventually one or more of those terminals/connectors will fail, and you'll have to do the job anyway.

I'd replace the in-tank fuel pump at the same time. Getting in there is no picnic, but once you're there, give yourself a new pump. The price is relatively low. If the old one fails, the car will likely keep running, relying mainly on the main pump (outside the tank), but this strains the main pump, leading to its premature failure - and the main pump is much more expensive.
