Eli, I did not mean to imply that the way you showed is wrong.
I am totally new to Arch and pacman, so I really don't know how this all
works.
I am just trying to learn.

It *seems* to work okay from here, and does not explicitly require use of rankmirrors or a mirrorgen file.
Well, for my use case specifically, which I quoted, I chose to use rankmirrors. ;)
Anyone else is free to use whatever is best for them.
