It would be nice if you could send us patches for those downloads not
working anymore, because once those packages are installed you usually
avoid downloading and compiling the stuff again and again.

By patching defaults.sh right away centrally, you avoid that anyone
trying install.sh either gives up or finds his own way to solve the
problem.
