There is major drawback. Aware people will use a 'cc'-servername to choose to install from, as to benefit from probable proximity. So to relax the requirement of 'cc' to be not tier-1 at all, could be problem. There should at least be some 'cc' server that are tier-1, too. (One could suggest maybe ftp.cc, ftp1.cc and ftp2.cc, more if available). Something like that.
