Default No rear wheel alignment without front?

My rear wheels need to be align (one was bumped). It's an a4 quattro. The service person at the dealer said they can't do a rear wheel alignment without doing the front first. Is there any reason for this??

Default When you align a quattro, you should allign both ends..

that way the car will go down the road streight.
