If you hard-code anything other than pkg.FreeBSD.org in bsdconfig, now clusteradm has to become aware of it, and make sure that record *always* exists, no matter what the endpoint is. This nonsense happened with sysinstall, and anything else that used the FTP mirror list. And when a node disappears, for whatever reason, it is an absolute nightmare to sort out. For the last time, you do not need to have *any* host entries other than 'pkg.FreeBSD.org'.

So was pkg.FreeBSD.org. It is why I do *NOT* want you to hard-code anything other than that.
