I had the same thought. Makes me think we're getting old and the old ways of the web just aren't known as widely anymore.
I've had to do this several times in the past because the customer firewall blocks google domains, and it never required a second thought. The only question I had was around the legality of doing so (which I checked on). Once I verified that, it was about 2 minutes of wget (or curl) the file down, stick in a static web server, and update the links in the HTML page and Bob's your Uncle
I'm a lawyer so an example something I WOULD NEVER SAY IN EARNEST, but I perhaps would if I wasn't might be:
"And perhaps even the idea of having to think about the legality of such things is part of the problem, I can remember when we'd just DO IT."
