A couple of points to add to this discussion. 
RedHat does say that the official mirrors get preferred bandwidth. If
that is true, I don´t know what your suggestion buys unless it makes the
server farm more reliable.
The cost value trade-off depends somewhat on the expected load level. If
the current situation of massive changes and high load is to be routine,
then I agree with your suggestion. If it is a once a year situation,
then usually the extra assets will be sitting idle.
