The cardiac muscle of the heart is thickest in the walls of the left ventricle, from a functional perspective why is that necessary?

Arteries have thick layers of smooth muscle in there tunica media, while veins do not. What is the purpose of this difference from a functional perspective?

Arteries are under higher pressure and must constrict or dilate to maintain  BP, veins are under much lower pressure so they do not require the thick layer of muscle
