Why not make Aria2c an optional dependency? It could be implemented such that

This is already possible, if you enable parallel build jobs, then you'll
get parallel downloads.
There's also been work to allow controling these things separately.

So it sounds like my first steps are to re-implement the downloads
using aria2c. This would affect the minimum base package, no? Can I

Presently, I am waiting until the end of global warming to finish
pulling down texlive packages. I see that there are a few servers
