So, reading this - it seems that Will is saying that verifying the
server is not needed. The packages are signed - and if they are good, it
doesn't really matter if the server is what it says it is. Make sense?
You care about the packages, not the source of the packages (in this
scenario).

That's how I interpret it - but, at any rate, I think this is something
that should be followed up on devel rather than marketing. 

Best,
