Good point.  One of my goals is to make every build produce identical
output given identical input, and you simply cannot do that with dynamic
third party repos.    With a local mirror of a debian-based distro, you
have complete control over updates, and thanks to
https://reproducible-builds.org/ we have a shot at actually achieving
bit-for-bit identical output, each and every time, regardless of machine
doing the build.  And that is good for security.
