Erm, it has nothing to do with the namespace.  ftp.foo.freebsd.org
*might* be a tier-one mirror and it might not be - that's wholly
dependent on how well connected they are and whether they've agreed to
host the entire site.  If some site only allows 5 users to log in and
contains pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.3-RELEASE only then it will never
be a tier-one site, regardless of where it might reside in the
namespace.

Actively pruning the namespace to more accurately reflect content
is a whole 'nother topic and something to be handled in parallel
with the establishment of a multi-tiered FTP hierarchy.
