I'm a bit confused about this, can anyone clarify?

My interpretation is that mdeslaur is saying that because updates are in
the normal ubuntu repositories, and in the sources.list files
security.ubuntu.com is listed last, then so long as there is no problem
with the archive repo, files will *not* be fetched from the security
repo, and thus this change is unneeded.

Is this correct?

The only case I can think of where this will cause more bandwidth is in
the retrieval of a second set of package lists (from
security.ubuntu.com), and the gap between packages being on
security.ubuntu and the local archive mirror.
