I would be extremely ecstatically happy to.
However,
as I _proved_ in 636292 using tcpflow(1),
a simple "apt-get update",
will make TWO calls to the DNS.
The checksum will come from a _different_ round robin machine, four out
of five times. It's Russian Roulette. I can't bear to pull the trigger.
A user would have to be crazy to use a round robin mirror until the apt
team finally gets around to fixing this probably one line bug.
