This reminds me of that old saying... "In the land of the blind, the
one-eyed man is king."

In this context, I am just one of the blind men, groping my way around...
and I am neither too proud nor too ashamed to admit it.

In short, I have no idea if you are right or wrong, or if the content
of my /etc/hosts file even makes much bloody difference to anything,
in practice.  (I have a question pending abuot that very issue on the
freebsd-net mailing list.  It appears to me that manual edits of my
/etc/hosts file aren't even having any effect at all.  I'm trying to
find out why.)

Ditto.
