Default 1 or 2

Looking to replace my stock mirrors with Jaybrake black anodized round radius mirrors. Maybe a silly question, but I'm thinking of just getting one mirror and mount it on the left side, a little more old school. I always look both ways, and even though I do use the mirrors actively, don't think I'd miss the other mirror. What do others think? 1 or 2? All opinions welcome. Thanks.
