If you're talking about the concept of letting the user pick which
country/net he is in and then get a set of local mirrors prepended, I
disagree.  That's a good concept - it makes it easy for a user to get
a reasonable setup.  I don't believe most users will take the bother
of overriding without it - but they will get a more pleasant system
with overriding.  Good advertising.
