Hi,
I have not followed closely the discussion so maybe I am off topic.

From my understanding bordeaux builds by its own and ci too, i.e., they
are not really a mirror from each other. But the last is a real
mirror––from ci I guess.
It implies that the user does not necessary get the same binaries if the
build is not reproducible.
Well, my point is: the word «mirror» from the sentence «you can add a
mirror that is nearer…» should be «server» and the documentation should
not talk about mirror here, IMHO. If my understanding is correct. :-)

Who is behind this mirror? Well, I am not sure what means USA here.
All the best,
